About Safe Streets for All
The Safe Streets for All program is a federal initiative that helps communities reduce roadway fatalities and serious injuries through data-driven planning and targeted infrastructure improvements. The program supports Greeley’s Vision Zero goal of eliminating traffic deaths and serious injuries by making streets safer for people who drive, walk, bike and use transit.
The program is largely funded through federal grants, allowing the city to make significant safety improvements while limiting the local financial contribution. Greeley received a $7.9 million federal grant, matched with $1.979 million from the city’s Transportation Development Fund.
Planned improvements will use a “quick-build” approach. This allows the city to install safety features more quickly, evaluate how they work and make adjustments if needed.
