The U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) announced the 2023 Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for Safe Streets and Roads for All grants is now open for applications.  The application to apply for this grant is available here and at Grants.gov.

Eligible grant recipients include cities, towns and townships, counties, metropolitan planning organizations, some transit authorities, tribes and groupings of these units of governments (for example, multiple cities can join together for a project). State governments are ineligible to receive this grant.
