The U.S. Department of Transportation's "National Roadway Safety Strategy" includes promoting the use of speed cameras in cities and towns as a "Proven safety countermeasure." DOT received $6 billion to issue grants to "Help cities and towns" with road safety, which was part of the $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill that Congress passed.
"That law creates a new Safe Streets and Roads for All program, providing $6 billion to help cities and towns deliver new, comprehensive safety strategies, as well as accelerate existing, successful safety initiatives," said Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg during a speech on Thursday about the launch of DOT's National Roadway Safety Strategy.
"It will protect not only drivers but all road users, including people who walk, bike, or use a wheelchair," he added.
"The U.S. Department of Transportation is in the process of determining funding eligibility for these grants, which will be outlined in an upcoming Notice of Funding Opportunity," a spokesperson said.
Additional information about eligible projects will be included in the NOFO.".
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
