Radarsign Releases "The Reference Guide to Grant Funding for Radar Speed Signs"

MARIETTA, Ga. - Jan. 30, 2018 - PRLog -- The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is calling for renewed attention to the problem of speeding. A recently released NTSB safety study states, "Although speeding is one of the most common factors in motor vehicle crashes in the US, it is an underappreciated problem, involved in about 10,000 highway fatalities each year."

Communities across the country are responding to this call to action, often looking to incorporate radar speed signs into their traffic calming plans. Unfortunately, local budgets often cannot cover the costs, and agencies must seek alternative funding sources. To aid these efforts, Radarsign—the manufacturer of the world's first armored driver feedback sign—has released a new resource: "The Reference Guide to Grant Funding for Radar Speed Signs."

The new handbook includes insights into grants for traffic calming that can be secured from:

• Federal sources
• State and County sources
• Corporate benevolent funds and funding from nonprofit organizations
• Business Improvement Districts (BID)
• Multiple sources by using radar speed signs to capture data and document need for future grants

The guide also presents profiles of model communities that have successfully used grants to purchase Radarsign brand radar speed signs to make their communities safer.
