概要

 Welcome to your weekly DOT roundup, where we break down the latest moves shaping America's roads, bridges, and safety. This week’s top headline: Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy announced nearly $1 billion in Safe Streets and Roads for All grants, opening applications on March 27 to fund local safety projects like speed management, pedestrian enhancements, and intersection redesigns. With $305 million for planning and $688 million for implementation—typically $5 to $25 million per project—this could be the program’s final round before its authorization expires September 30.

Duffy’s team is also pouring cash into infrastructure: $407 million to repair 119 rural bridges across 12 states, $600 million to rebuild the I-95 Delaware River Bridge between Pennsylvania and New Jersey, $108 million for Alaska’s Johnson and Gerstle River bridges, $657 million for ferry upgrades, and $54 million for rural and tribal roads. Plus, record-low traffic deaths in 2025 mark the second-lowest fatality rate ever, thanks to proven tech rollouts via the Every Day Counts program.

For citizens, safer streets mean fewer crashes—roadway departures cause 63% of tribal fatalities—and quicker commutes amid states like Ohio’s 1,000 projects worth $3.4 billion. Businesses get faster builds with red-tape cuts in states like Nebraska, boosting trucking and manufacturing. Local governments, including counties and tribes, snag flexible funds requiring just 20% non-federal match, while Duffy’s “Put it Away or Pay” distracted driving push protects workers.

“These investments strengthen America’s commerce and safety,” Duffy said in his Alaska bridge release. Counties must apply by 5 p.m. EDT May 26 via Valid Eval.
