SRTS Signs and Lines Program

The 2020 - 2021 call for applications has been paused in order to consider how this year’s program may fit in with existing MassDOT initiatives. More detailed information will be available soon.

The SRTS Signs and Lines Program will provide design services and up to $6,000 in construction funding to a selected municipality for a low-cost infrastructure project around a public elementary or middle school. The goal of these projects is to eliminate small barriers that students encounter when walking, bicycling, or using a wheeled mobility device to get to school. Examples of a Signs and Lines Project could include the purchase and installation of new signage or pavement markings. This is a reimbursement-based funding program; MassDOT reimburses the municipality for eligible spending after the project is complete.

• A beginner's guide to transportation infrastructure around schools
• A discussion of how a recently installed crosswalk was successfully constructed in Ashland
• The fundamentals of infrastructure funding
• The new infrastructure application process
