STATEHOUSE (June 30, 2026) — Communities in Senate District 11 will receive more than $3.1 million to improve roads and bridges through the Community Crossings Matching Grant Program (CCMG), said State Sen. Linda Rogers (R-Granger).
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.
This additional round of awards is being issued following the passage of Senate Enrolled Act 179.
In Senate District 11, the following communities received grants:
“As the Crossroads of America, the CCMG Program is a great resource to have because it provides extra support to local governments to fund road projects and ensure communities have safe roadways,” Rogers said. “I’m pleased to see local leaders take advantage of this funding to help improve local infrastructure, and I look forward to seeing the positive impacts this has on our communities.”
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.
