An overview.

The World Health Organization estimates that 1.35 million people across the world are killed in road traffic accidents every single year. The problem is particularly acute in the United States, prompting the Department of Transportation’s new Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) grant program, with $1 billion available. Grants are available for both planning and implementation of projects to promote safer streets, including acquiring technology like Remix Streets, which was recently used to redesign some of the  most dangerous intersections in NYC. In this webinar, you will hear everything you need to know about available funding and Complete Streets best practices.
