Safe Communities
Welcome to Safe Communities
Nine agencies within the U.S. Department of Transportation are working together to promote and implement a safer national transportation system by combining the best injury prevention practices into the Safe Communities approach to serve as a model throughout the nation.
Safe Communities Service Center
The USDOT established the Safe Communities Service Center to serve as an information and technical assistance marketplace to advance Safe Communities nationwide. The Center provides one-stop shopping for local community needs for materials and resources related to building and strengthening Safe Communities.
