Your voice matters! The USDOT needs to hear how strengthening the HSIP and enhancing its effectiveness will improve road safety for people who walk and bike.
The U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Highway Administration (FWHA) recently proposed updates to the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP), which provides federal funding for states to plan and construct road safety projects, including bike infrastructure.
A public comment portal is open until April 22 to voice your opinion about these proposed changes. PeopleForBikes drafted a comment to make it easy for you to take action, but please feel free to make it your own and explain how these proposed updates will benefit you and your community.
