Bill Summary
A BILL To amend section 133 of title 23, United States Code, to include roundabouts as eligible projects under the surface transportation block grant program, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill, known as the "Traffic Safety Enhancement Act of 2025", amends section 133 of title 23 of the United States Code to explicitly include the construction of roundabouts as an eligible project type under the Surface Transportation Block Grant Program (STBGP). The Surface Transportation Block Grant Program is a federal funding mechanism that provides flexible funding to states and local governments for transportation infrastructure projects. By adding roundabouts to the list of eligible projects, the bill will make it easier for transportation agencies to use federal grant funds to build these circular intersections, which are designed to improve traffic flow and reduce the severity of potential accidents by controlling vehicle speeds and reducing potential collision points compared to traditional intersections.
