Opportunity Information: Apply for DOT SS4A FY24 01
The Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) Funding Opportunity (DOT SS4A FY24 01, CFDA 20.939) is a competitive, discretionary grant program from the U.S. Department of Transportation, Office of the Under Secretary for Policy (Agency code 69A345). For FY 2024, the program is designed to help communities prevent roadway deaths and serious injuries by funding both (1) planning and demonstration work and (2) implementation projects and strategies. The emphasis is on safety for all roadway users, not just drivers, including pedestrians, bicyclists, public transportation users, people using personal conveyances and micromobility devices, motorists, and commercial vehicle operators. The Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) was amended on April 16, 2024, and the full details and requirements are posted at https://www.transportation.gov/grants/ss4a/fy24-nofo.
The funding is intended to support a broad range of efforts that move jurisdictions toward safer street and road systems. Planning and Demonstration Grants generally focus on developing, updating, or strengthening safety action plans and testing safety approaches through pilots or demonstrations, while Implementation Grants focus on putting proven or well-supported safety solutions into practice through projects and strategies aimed at reducing fatalities and serious injuries. The program anticipates a large number of awards (expected awards: 500), with an award ceiling listed at $25,000,000, indicating that some awards may be substantial depending on the scope, readiness, and competitiveness of the application.
Applications must be submitted through the Valid Eval online system, not through Grants.gov. Separate submission portals are used depending on the grant type: Implementation Grant applicants must apply via https://usg.valideval.com/teams/usdotss4a2024implementation/signup, and Planning and Demonstration Grant applicants must apply via https://usg.valideval.com/teams/usdotss4a2024planningdemo/signup. This submission requirement is central to eligibility for consideration, since applications sent through the wrong platform will not meet the stated process in the NOFO.
The deadlines differ by grant category. Planning and Demonstration Grant applicants have three available submission deadlines: Thursday, April 4, 2024 at 5:00 PM EDT; Thursday, May 16, 2024 at 5:00 PM EDT; and Thursday, August 29, 2024 at 5:00 PM EDT (which is also shown as the original closing date in the source data). Implementation Grant applications have a single deadline: Thursday, May 16, 2024 at 5:00 PM EDT. Late applications are not accepted, with a narrow exception only if lateness is caused by a technical issue directly attributable to the Valid Eval submission system, meaning applicants should plan for early submission and allow time for upload, validation, and troubleshooting.
Eligible applicants are public-sector and certain quasi-public entities positioned to plan and deliver roadway safety improvements. The NOFO highlights eligibility for metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs), political subdivisions of a state or territory, federally recognized Tribal governments, and multijurisdictional groups made up of the eligible entity types. The source eligibility list further reflects common local and regional government structures and public institutions, including county governments, city or township governments, special district governments, independent school districts, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, and federally recognized Native American tribal governments. This eligibility structure supports both single-jurisdiction applications and partnerships across jurisdictions where roadway safety problems and solutions cross boundaries.
Overall, SS4A FY 2024 funding is aimed at helping communities build safety plans, test safety countermeasures, and deploy projects that measurably reduce fatal and serious-injury crashes. The program’s structure, multiple planning deadlines, and separate planning versus implementation tracks are meant to accommodate communities at different stages, from early planning and demonstrations to ready-to-build or ready-to-deploy safety strategies, while keeping the focus on protecting all roadway users through evidence-driven investments.Apply for DOT SS4A FY24 01
