Casey, Fetterman Secure More Than $15 Million for Safe Streets in State College

Funds will create shared street on Calder Way, make downtown State College safer for pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists Made possible by Casey’s vote for infrastructure law, the funding will include traffic calming measures, crosswalk visibility enhancements, additional bike lanes, and widening of sidewalks Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senators Bob Casey (D-PA) and John Fetterman (D-PA) secured $15,885,560 in federal funding to make Calder Way, a downtown corridor in State College, safer for pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists. As a central street utilized by residents and students, Calder Way is a high-pedestrian, high-cyclist street and these safety improvements will include traffic calming measures to reduce car speeds, crosswalk visibility enhancements and widening of sidewalks to protect pedestrians, and an additional bike lane. The funding was made possible by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) passed in 2021. “Calder Way is one of Penn State’s main streets and students and residents rely on it everyday to get across town on foot or by car,” said Senator Casey. “With slower cars speeds, wider sidewalks, and an additional bike lane, these improvements will make Calder Way safer for drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians alike.” “I'm thrilled to see the Borough of State College receive this significant investment from the Department of Transportation. With nearly $16 million in funding, this project will make downtown State College safer for everyone—whether you're on foot, bike, or behind the wheel. This is a big step forward in the effort to create safer streets across Pennsylvania, and I'm proud to support this project as part of our larger commitment to making our towns and cities more livable and sustainable for all.” said Senator Fetterman. ###
