STATEHOUSE (Oct. 28, 2026) — Communities in Senate District 14 will receive more than $3.2 million to improve roads and bridges through the Community Crossings Matching Grant Program (CCMG), said State Sen. Dr. Tyler Johnson (R-Leo).
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 14, the following communities received grants:
"Safe and reliable roads are essential to the success of our communities," Johnson said. "I am pleased to see this funding awarded to so many communities in Senate District 14 and commend our local leaders for investing in important infrastructure improvements."
Through the program, the Indiana Department of Transportation matches up to $1 million annually when localities invest in road and bridge repairs. Counties with populations fewer than 55,000 and cities and towns with populations fewer than 12,500 receive an 80%/20% match, while counties with populations greater than 55,000 and cities and towns with populations greater than 12,500 receive a 50%/50% match.
