Atlanta Metro Personal Injury Law Group, a network of law firms serving the greater Atlanta area, has responded to the $200,000 federal Safe Streets and Roads for All grant awarded to Dunwoody on January 15, 2026, designated for road safety audits on high-injury corridors throughout the city.
The grant allocation follows DeKalb County's record of 136 traffic fatalities and 38,810 crashes in 2022, representing seven percent of all Georgia traffic fatalities. The county documented 121 traffic deaths in 2024, exceeding the combined homicides in five metro Atlanta counties. Traffic fatalities in Fulton and DeKalb counties increased 25.10 percent between 2018 and 2021.
"The federal investment in Dunwoody's road safety infrastructure addresses the documented rise in traffic accidents across DeKalb County," stated a spokesperson for Atlanta Metro Personal Injury Law Group. "Infrastructure improvements target accident prevention, while current accident victims require legal representation to navigate insurance claims and compensation processes."
The U.S. Department of Transportation's Safe Streets and Roads for All program targets the reduction of fatal and serious injury crashes through infrastructure improvements. The project's total budget of $250,000 combines $200,000 in federal funding with $50,000 in local matching funds, supporting comprehensive roadway audits on priority corridors within Dunwoody's high-injury network.
National traffic fatality data show a 6.3 percent decrease during the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. Georgia reported 1,466 deaths in 2024, indicating continued road safety challenges despite national improvements. The contrast between national trends and local statistics underscores the significance of targeted infrastructure investments in high-risk areas.
