The Office of Grants and Research (OGR) is offering grant applications to support traditional enforcement activities and develop new strategies aimed at reducing roadway crashes, injuries, fatalities, and associated economic losses within Massachusetts. This program is rooted in the mission of enhancing public safety and well-being by directly addressing critical issues in traffic safety. The OGR makes federal funds available, providing police departments with substantial flexibility to tackle local traffic safety concerns. This flexibility allows for funding not only for enforcement but also for equipment options and the development of innovative traffic-safety programs, aligning with a comprehensive approach to safety improvement. The primary beneficiaries of this grant program are Massachusetts municipal police departments, who will utilize the funds to implement various traffic safety initiatives. The ultimate target beneficiaries are the residents of Massachusetts, as the program's impact goals are to significantly reduce roadway crashes, injuries, fatalities, and the economic losses associated with these incidents. The grant's strategic priorities are focused on empowering local police departments with the resources and autonomy to tailor traffic safety solutions to their specific community needs, fostering a proactive and adaptive approach to public safety. The program prioritizes a multifaceted approach to traffic safety, encompassing traffic enforcement, pedestrian and bicyclist enforcement, and non-enforcement traffic safety activities. These elements are optional and independent, allowing departments to apply for any combination that best addresses their local needs. Examples of proposed projects include deploying overtime patrols for speeding violations, conducting crosswalk decoy patrols to reduce pedestrian crashes, and implementing non-enforcement activities such as ARIDE training for officers, pedestrian outreach, distribution of safety materials, and school presentations on pedestrian safety. Expected outcomes include a measurable reduction in speeding vehicles, pedestrian crashes, and overall traffic-related incidents. For example, a department might aim to reduce speeding vehicles at a specific intersection by 10% or pedestrian crashes by 50% from the previous year. Measurable results are a core component, with applicants required to provide at least three measurable target objectives clearly related to their chosen program elements. These objectives must be quantifiable and attainable, ensuring that progress can be tracked effectively. This emphasis on data-driven results reflects a theory of change where strategic investment in targeted interventions leads to demonstrable improvements in traffic safety and public health outcomes across the state.
