Safe Streets for Spokane

The City of Spokane applied for a federal implementation grant under the Safe Streets 4 All program in July 2023. Learn more about this program on the U.S. Department of Transportation website. The City was awarded $9.6M from this program in December 2023 for a total project cost of $12M. Planning efforts are now underway.

City staff conducted outreach on needed improvements in the winter of 2025. You can view the collected feedback on Engage Spokane. City staff will work with the Transportation Commission to prioritize spending on the requested improvements.

Construction activity will start in early 2027 and run through 2029. The City’s grant application is available for review below.

Improvement projects will include bike lanes, shared-use pathways, stairway and crosswalk improvements, ADA ramps and several other safety and mobility projects for non-motorized users. Projects selected for the first year of construction will focus on crosswalks and sidewalk infill.
