Identifing the Right Funding Opportunities
The Safety Navigator for California Communities (SNCC) can help you identify the right funding opportunities for your projects and learn from successful practices being implemented across California and beyond.
- Schedule a free consultation to discuss your project or application, or
- Attend the free webinar on June 16th, 2026, to help you determine which funding program is the best fit for your specific safety project. Presenters will walk through real examples and decision frameworks to match project types to funding programs.
Transportation funding continues to evolve, creating both challenges and opportunities for California's local agencies, tribal nations, MPOs, RTPAs, and transportation partners.
