FY26 Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) NOFO Now Live

The Department of Transportation has released the fiscal year (FY) 2026 Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for the Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) program.

Established by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), the Safe Streets and Roads for All grant program funds regional, local, and Tribal initiatives through grants to prevent roadway deaths and serious injuries. Almost $1 billion is made available by this NOFO.

Two Available Grant Types

The SS4A program provides funding for two main types of grants:

Planning and Demonstration Grants are used to develop, complete, or supplement an Action Plan, as well as carry out demonstration activities that inform an Action Plan.
Implementation Grants are used to implement strategies or projects that are consistent with an existing Action Plan and may also bundle funding requests for supplemental planning and demonstration activities that inform the Action Plan.

Applications and Deadline

The NOFO is posted on Grants.gov; you may also view the NOFO on the SS4A Website. The deadline for applications is May 26, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. (ET).
