WA Safe Routes to School and Pedestrian/Bicyclist Program Grants List

 

Every two years, following a call for projects, the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) submits a report to the legislature on the recommended Safe Routes to School (SRTS) and Pedestrian/Bicyclist Program (PBP) grants. The 2019-2021 report explains the selection process, reports on past grant awards, and provides a prioritized list of applicants for funding in the next cycle.

For the next grant awards (2019-2021 biennium), approximately $41 million in funding is anticipated to be awarded for the two programs. WSDOT received 253 applications requesting a total of $185.8 million—more than four times the amount available and the highest number to date in total amount requested.
