Governor Laura Kelly today announced 12 Kansas communities will receive a combined total of $5 million in federal funds through the new Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) Grant Program to produce local transportation safety plans to identify and address transportation safety concerns.
State funding provided by a new Kansas SS4A Match Pilot Program will contribute to the local match as required of grant recipients.
"These grants directly support communities across Kansas to improve roadways and save lives," Governor Laura Kelly said. "I commend these local governments for leveraging federal and state funding to create safety plans for city streets and county roads."
