Plain-English Summary

States would be required to set aside a portion of their federal highway funding specifically for safety projects at pedestrian crossings where injuries and deaths are highest, such as installing better lighting, wider sidewalks, or traffic signals. This would help protect pedestrians, cyclists, and other vulnerable road users by forcing states to prioritize the most dangerous crossing locations. The change would affect state transportation departments and communities across the country that struggle with pedestrian safety issues.
