The Victorian Government has launched a new round of grants to help more councils across the state deliver road safety projects in their local areas to keep their communities safe.
Nearly half of all fatal accidents and serious injuries of pedestrians and cyclists that involve a vehicle happen on council managed roads.
The program provides grants to projects that adopt ‘Safe System’ principles to reduce crashes, these are principles that consider all elements of the road system including vehicles, travel speeds, road users, and the road itself.
Funding Information
- Councils right across the state can apply for grants of up to $100,000 to improve road safety, particularly for pedestrians and cyclists as part of the Transport Accident Commission’s (TAC) Local Government Grant Program.
Who can apply?
- To be eligible for funding, applicants must:
- Be a Victorian Local Government Authority.
- Ensure applications to the Infrastructure and Analysis funding categories are pedestrian and/or cyclist-focused and on local government-managed roads.
- Match TAC funding on a 1:1 basis if successful in the Infrastructure funding category.
- Provide evidence of current public liability and professional indemnity insurance.
