FMCSA GRANTS

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) partners with stakeholders to accomplish the shared goal of keeping our Nation’s roadways safe. The Agency maintains strong relationships with its partners through substantial grant opportunities.

Partnering with FMCSA

FMCSA partners with those who share the Agency's goal of improving commercial motor vehicle (CMV) safety on the Nation's roads. In FY 2019, FMCSA provided more than $370 million in grant funding to law enforcement agencies, State and local transportation departments, industry, non-profit organizations, and others working on CMV-related safety activities. These grants support traffic enforcement, Commercial Driver Licensing programs, innovative technologies, improved driver training, and numerous other efforts to further the Agency’s safety mission.
