Take the Safe Streets and Roads for All Survey!
The City of Jackson is developing a Safe Streets and Roads for All Safety Action Plan, aiming to eliminate roadway fatalities and serious injuries. We're seeking public input on the community's goals and needs. Your feedback on this survey will help shape the priorities to be addressed by the plan.
The Safe Streets and Roads for All Grant Program
The Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) program was developed by the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) in 2022. The SS4A program funds regional, local, and Tribal initiatives through grants to prevent roadway deaths and serious injuries, supporting USDOT's National Roadway Safety Strategy and goal of zero roadway deaths.
Over the 5 years of the program's lifespan, from 2022-2026, $5 billion have been designated to fund community-led projects across the country that address the preventable crisis of deaths on roads, streets, and highways through safer people, roads, and vehicles; appropriate vehicle speeds; and improved post-crash care.
City of Jackson Safety Action Plan
As a participant in the SS4A program, the City of Jackson will be developing a Safe Streets and Roads for All Safety Action Plan that is intended to outline specific strategies and investments in transportation safety improvements.
Listening and Learning
Our approach to creating the Safety Action Plan to improve safety for all users of the transportation system begins with crafting a vision based on community input about transportation goals, needs, and priorities. We hope to involve residents from all walks of life and diverse backgrounds, promoting access and equity in the plan.
Take the Public Feedback Survey
