All grant applications are assigned to Bureau of Safety Programs and Engineering (BSPE) staff for reviewing and scoring based on program specific criteria. First, an application is assigned to a staff member along with a project evaluation template for an initial review. A second review will be completed by one of IDOT’s Motorcycle Safety Unit staff. The final score will be calculated by averaging the first two reviewer’s scores. Selected applicants will receive a Notice of State Award (NOSA). Applicants that were not selected will receive a denial letter. After the merit-based review and selection is completed, applicants that have been denied funding have the ability to appeal the decision. This is done by submitting a formal letter to the BSPE. This letter may present the case in which the applicant believes they should have received funding. Please contact 217-782-3568 for specifics.
