Tribal Transportation Safety Plans

Tribal Transportation Safety Plans

Tribalsafety.org, an online community working to reduce injuries and fatalities from transportation incidents in Tribal areas, has created a webpage highlighting a collection of Transportation Safety Plans developed by Tribes. The collection of plans in the state of California are featured below. Visit the Safety Plans Library to view plans for Tribal Governments organized by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) region.

Funded Tribal Transportation Safety Plans

Tribal Transportation Program Safety Fund (TTPSF)(link is external)

Each year under the FAST Act, 2% of the available Tribal Transportation Program funds are set aside to address transportation safety issues in Native America under the TTPSF. These grants are awarded annually and are available to federally recognized Indian tribes through a competitive, discretionary program. The Fiscal Year 2022 TTPSF Notice of Funding Opportunity will be announced on the TribalSafety.org mailing list and the FHWA Office of Tribal Transportation mailing list when available.
