Crosswalk

Jefferson County is receiving $200,000 as part of a nationwide safe roads grant.

U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg announced $800 million will go toward hundreds of projects across the country. 

Seven of those grants are going to communities in Oregon.

The money for Jefferson County is to create a safety action plan to re-design sidewalks and crosswalks, hopefully reducing the number of accidents on the road.
