FMCSA Grant Submission Period Opens

Roadway safety is at the core of FMCSA’s mission. Our job is to focus on ways to reduce crashes and fatalities involving large trucks and buses on our nation’s roadways. That’s a big job – one we know we can’t do alone. That’s why we partner with state organizations, local jurisdictions, academic institutions, training providers, and other entities to promote commercial motor vehicle (CMV) safety-related activities.

FMCSA has announced four Notices of Funding Opportunity (NOFOs) for FY2026 grant opportunities. Now’s the time to gain information on eligibility requirements and the application process. There’s about a 30-day window to complete the application.
