Welcome to the Grants & Projects for Safety (GPS) E-Grants Management System

The Maryland Department of Transportation’s Highway Safety Office (MHSO) grant application process for FFY 2027 (October 1, 2026 - September 30, 2027) opens on January 5, 2026. Organizations eligible for grant awards include state and local governments, law enforcement agencies, non-profit organizations, institutions of higher education and hospitals. The highway safety grant program funds efforts to reduce motor vehicle crashes, deaths, and injuries on Maryland roads. Grants are provided as reimbursement only, and expenses must be incurred before funds are disbursed.

The MHSO has grants for both Law Enforcement and General Highway Safety activities for eligible agencies. The MHSO grants further the goals laid out in Maryland Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP). Click here to review the SHSP.
