STATEHOUSE (June 30, 2026) — Communities in Senate District 31 will receive more than $2.3 million to improve roads and bridges through the Community Crossings Matching Grant Program (CCMG), said State Sen. Kyle Walker (R-Lawrence).
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 31, the following communities received grants:
"Indiana is known as the Crossroads of America, which emphasizes the need to maintain our roads and bridges," Walker said. "The Community Crossing Grant Program is a great way for local communities to improve local transportation networks, and I am pleased to see communities in Senate District 31 take advantage of this opportunity."
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.
