H.R. 5452 reauthorizes and modifies the Safe Streets and Roads for All program, which was established under the 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. The bill increases the minimum percentage of program funding dedicated to planning grants from an unspecified level to at least 20 percent, ensuring more resources go toward community planning projects that identify traffic safety improvements. Additionally, the legislation adds $5 billion in new funding for the program covering fiscal years 2027 through 2031, extending the program's reach beyond its initial funding period. This measure affects states, cities, and local governments that use federal grants to reduce traffic fatalities and serious injuries on roadways. The bill was introduced with bipartisan support and referred to the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure.
