Road safety grant scheme
The road safety (safe travel) grant scheme, administered by the Department for Infrastructure (DfI), aims to cut the number of people killed or seriously injured on the roads and encourage active travel.
The 2021 to 2022 road safety (safe travel) grant scheme for voluntary and community groups in the north of Ireland was launched in September 2021. By the closing date of 15 October 2021 DfI had received 17 applications for funding.
All applications were tested by a panel of officials from within DfI and scored against a set criteria.
Of the 17 applications received, 15 were deemed to have met this criteria and were recommended for grant funding.
