Overview
The program offers financial aid to community projects focused on road safety in Ontario, supporting initiatives that raise awareness about traffic safety issues and promote responsible transportation behavior. The maximum funding is $50,000, and recipients must match this amount through community donations or in-kind support.
The goal of the program is to foster safer roads by encouraging grassroots efforts that target critical issues such as aggressive and distracted driving, impaired driving, pedestrian and cyclist safety, and the integration of emerging vehicle technologies. Projects should aim to influence transportation user behavior positively, support legislative compliance, and increase awareness of road safety policies at a community level.
