The TAC, in partnership with the Department of Transport and Planning, have developed the Safe Local Roads and Streets program to support the development and delivery of road safety infrastructure projects on local roads.
This $200 million program is designed to integrate local governments’ priorities with a Safe System approach.
The program will run from July 2023 to June 2027. Over this time, we’ll work with all Victorian local governments to plan, design and deliver $200 million of safety improvements on the highest-risk local roads, intersections and precincts, such as schools.
* This specific grant round is for "Innovative Projects" which (subject to approval) may be provided with funding over and above the nominal $2 million amount allocated to each LGA as part of this program. Projects which are innovative in nature (i.e. design, delivery approach, potential provision of valuable learnings and insights) may be considered under this round of the SLRSP.
** Please refer to separate funding round/s for projects which would fall under the nominal $2m allocation per LGA.
Project applications will require:
- Preliminary designs
- Cost estimates and associated details
- Alignment to sound research and/or established road safety design principles and safety treatments
