Rural Road Safety Funding at USDOT: Example Projects from 2022 compiles a selection of recently awarded projects from certain U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) discretionary and non-discretionary grant programs that aim to address rural road safety. This compilation is meant to support prospective rural applicants in understanding how USDOT grants have previously been used to improve rural road safety, and to showcase the underlying importance of safety across USDOT grant programs.

An important milestone has been reached for the County and region. A 2nd Causeway would provide Improved Connectivity and Accessibility, Traffic Relief, Emergency Evacuation Routes, and Economic Development for the region. The new highway designation by the Commission is significant as it provides increased funding opportunities (A new highway designation may make the project eligible for specific funding streams designated for highways or transportation projects. This can help secure financial support for the construction of the new bridge), provides recognition and visibility (designating a new highway can increase the visibility of the area on a regional, state, or even national level) and provides for facilitation of regional planning (A new highway designation can be part of a broader regional planning strategy, fostering collaboration among municipalities, counties, and State).

Do you need funding for a transportation-related study? Take a look at OVRDC's Transportation-Related RFP for transportation studies/plans giving entities the opportunity to request up to $20,000 for a transportation-related safety plan or study. Suggested focus areas include: Safety Active Transportation School Travel Plans Thoroughfare Plans Economic Impact Traffic County/Analysis Complete Streets Transit Proposals should be limited in scope, so the estimated study cost is less than $20,000, but requests over that amount will be considered if the need is justified, reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

Good opinion piece by the Grattan Institute’s Marion Terrill on how taxpayers would get better bang for buck by increasing the funding available for road maintenance, instead of of new road builds. To maximise bang for buck, the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications and the Arts should provide such funding under long term performance based funding agreements that link the funding to appropriate road performance metrics, indicators and benchmarks (safety, efficiency, reliability, productivity, accessibility etc). Doing so would incentivise Local Councils to plan and manage the spend in a manner that maximises road performance outcomes. The road performance metrics should be aligned with longer term strategic transport network plans. Austroads publishes good guidance material on network planning and road performance metrics

More money to improve the safety of local roads we all use? ✅ More money to support local councils progress their priority road projects? ✅ We’re gradually doubling Roads to Recovery funding to $1 billion per year - because it’s getting critical projects off the ground! 👷🏽♀️ Like in the Port Stephens Council region, where I visited today with Meryl Swanson MP! 👇 #localgovernment #fundingincrease #workingtogether

The Rhode Island Division of Statewide Planning (RIDSP) is working on a limited update of our state’s long-range transportation plan (LRTP). An LRTP is a federally-required plan that sets the vision for a multi-modal transportation system – our roads, bridges, public transit, bike paths, sidewalks, ports, and more - over a minimum of 20 years. Your valuable feedback will help identify the state’s needs, challenges, and opportunities, informing the vision, strategies, and projects included in the final plan. https://hubs.ly/Q02KQJlL0
