Assembly Bill 434 establishes a local traffic calming grant program administered by the Department of Transportation (DOT) in Wisconsin. The program is designed to provide funding for infrastructure projects aimed at reducing vehicular speed in various political subdivisions and federally recognized Indian tribes or bands. The bill allocates $60,000,000 from the general fund for this purpose, with the DOT responsible for developing the program, setting application criteria, and determining the necessary information for grant applications.

The bill introduces new statutory sections, specifically 20.395 (2) (ja) and 85.024, which outline the funding and operational framework for the grant program. Section 20.395 (2) (ja) establishes a continuing appropriation for local traffic calming grants, while Section 85.024 details the responsibilities of the DOT in administering the program and awarding grants for eligible projects that align with federal transportation alternatives.
