RIPTA secured funding through the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) program to manage a statewide safety process that will result in 32 community safety action plans. The City of East Providence is a participating community. A Safety Action Plan will be developed for East Providence through this work. The Safety Action Plan will establish guidelines to implement safer streets and prepare East Providence with approaches to known and emerging safety and mobility challenges – for all modes of transportation. The plan will help identify priority projects and position East Providence for continued federal implementation funding. Engagement will be kicking off this summer with an online survey and in-person events. Please check the project webpage to complete the online survey and to track future engagement opportunities:
