Community Road Safety Projects

MAC, in partnership with the Department of Planning, Transport and Infrastructure (DPTI), is offering grants for groups and organisations to deliver small scale projects that promote safer, greener and more active travel choices. The projects will aim to engage with local communities to create a culture of road safety and to influence safer use of the road network for the overall well-being of the local community.
