Illuminate the Way to Safe Streets for All
Take advantage of millions in government funding to make infrastructure improvements for safety.
The Fifth and Final Year of Funding
FY22, FY23 and FY24 have provided $2.9 billion in federal funding to over 1,600 communities across the country. These grants support planning, infrastructure, and operational initiatives that support safer streets with the goal of zero roadway deaths.
UbiCell Streetlight Controller Makes Streets Safer
As you plan your SS4A project, consider our UbiCell network streetlight controller. It quickly plugs into your existing streetlight photocell socket and automatically connects to an LTE network so you can optimize your lighting for safety.
- Get alerts on lighting outages and downed or damaged poles
- Dim and brighten lights for weather conditions
- Detect and address power sag and swells
- Adjust lighting to reduce glare, improve depth perception, and optimize visibility
What is Safe Streets for All (SS4A)?
Open for a limited time each year, this grant program is designed to support initiatives that enhance road safety and reduce the risk of accidents. Cities can take advantage of up to $250,000 in funding to invest in safety-oriented solutions such as smart streetlight controllers.
Who is eligible for this type of funding?
Metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs), political subdivisions of a State (e.g., cities, towns, counties, special districts, and similar units of local government), federally recognized Tribal governments, or a multijurisdictional group of these entities are eligible.
What is different in Fiscal Year 2025?
There is a single application deadline of June 26, 2025. The FY25 NOFO no longer includes requirements related to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) or climate. Instead, it places greater emphasis on achieving much improved safety outcomes.
With almost $1B available for cities to make safety upgrades to their urban infrastructure, now is the time to act. Download our Grant Application Checklist to get started.
