South Australian community organisations will soon have the chance to apply for State Government grants to support the implementation of road safety initiatives, focused on changing behaviours around road safety.
The State Government’s new THINK! Road Safety Community Grants Program is designed to help organisations across South Australia improve road safety in their local communities.
South Australian organisations such as councils, charities, sports clubs, and educational organisations can apply for grants of up to $20,000 for a range of initiatives including the development of road safety education, awareness programs, and events.
Blair Boyer, SA Minister for Education, Training and Skills said the program would help to promote road safety at a community level.
“Local communities understand local road safety issues and that’s why we have created the THINK! Road Safety Community Grants Program – to better support and engage with grassroots organisations and community clubs,” Boyer said.

In January, the State Government released South Australia’s Road Safety Action Plan 2025-2027. This plan sets out actions that pave the way for a 10-year target of reducing lives lost by 50 per cent and serious injuries by 30 per cent by 2031.
Key new initiatives introduced under the Action Plan 2025-2027 include applying a time-based speed limit on high-priority arterial roads close to schools, increasing community awareness and understanding of road rules and the development of the THINK! Road Safety Community Grants Program.
