HSIP Funding Flexibility
The Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act – A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU) provides additional flexibility for states to use HSIP funds for public awareness, education, and enforcement activities that are consistent with the state’s strategic highway safety plan (SHSP).
Under SAFETEA-LU, a state may use up to 10 percent of the amount of funds apportioned to the state under the Highway Safety Improvement Program for a fiscal year to carry out safety projects under any other section of Title 23, United States Code, as provided in the state’s SHSP if the state certifies that:
- The state has met its needs relating to railway-highway crossings; and
- The state has met its infrastructure safety needs relating to highway safety improvement projects
The following guidance on this flexibility is available at:
