STATEHOUSE (March 6, 2025) — Communities in Senate District 41 will receive nearly $6 million to improve roads and bridges through the Community Crossings Matching Grant Program (CCMG), said State Sen. Greg Walker (R-Columbus).
The CCMG, established by the Indiana General Assembly in 2016, aims to advance community infrastructure projects, strengthen local transportation networks and improve Indiana’s roads and bridges. Since its enactment, the program has awarded more than $2 billion in state matching funds for local construction projects.
In Senate District 41, the following communities received grants:
"Local transportation and infrastructure are essential to Indiana and those traveling through our state," Walker said. "I am pleased to see many local communities taking advantage of this initiative, and I look forward to the improvements that will take place in our communities because of this program."
Through the program, the Indiana Department of Transportation matches up to $1.5 million annually when localities invest in road and bridge repairs. Counties with populations fewer than 50,000 and cities and towns with populations fewer than 10,000 receive a 75%/25% match, while counties with populations greater than 50,000 and cities and towns with populations greater than 10,000 receive a 50%/50% match.
