Opportunity Information: Apply for DTNH2217R00009
The Demonstration Project Promoting Highway Safety Program Guideline (HSPG) No. 13 (Funding Opportunity Number DTNH2217R00009) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Transportation, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). It was released on November 30, 2016, with an original application closing date of January 18, 2017. The opportunity uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, which generally means the federal agency expects to be substantially involved in the project after an award is made, such as providing ongoing technical input, coordination, or oversight rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back.
The purpose of the Request for Application is to help State Highway Safety Offices in states with significant older driver populations adopt and apply Highway Safety Program Guideline (HSPG) No. 13 as part of a comprehensive older driver safety program. In practical terms, the grant is aimed at moving states beyond isolated or one-off older driver initiatives and toward a coordinated, guideline-driven strategy that addresses the safety needs and crash risks associated with an aging driving population. HSPG No. 13 is the federal guideline that provides a structured framework for planning and strengthening older driver safety efforts, and this demonstration project is meant to support states in putting that framework into practice in a way that can be replicated or expanded.
Eligible applicants are limited to state governments, reflecting that this is designed for State Highway Safety Offices and related state-level partners who are responsible for statewide highway safety planning and implementation. The activity category is transportation, and the assistance listing is under CFDA 20.614. NHTSA anticipated making two awards under this announcement, with an award ceiling of $500,000 per award, indicating a small number of relatively sizable demonstration projects rather than many small grants. Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a targeted, pilot-style effort intended to help a limited number of states build or improve comprehensive older driver safety programs aligned with federal guidance, while generating lessons and models that could inform broader adoption in other states.Apply for DTNH2217R00009
