INDIANAPOLIS – The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) is accepting applications for the spring 2025 call for projects for the Community Crossings Matching Grant Program. The application window is open now through Friday, January 31.
The Community Crossings Matching Grant Program provides funding to cities, towns, and counties across Indiana to improve local roads and bridges.
Community Crossings is a partnership between INDOT and Hoosier communities, both urban and rural, to invest in infrastructure projects that catalyze economic development, create jobs, and strengthen local transportation networks.
Projects that are eligible for funding through Community Crossings include road and bridge preservation projects with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance in connection with these projects. Material costs for chip sealing and crack filling operations are also eligible for funding.
Community Crossings grants are available to cities, towns, and counties in the State of Indiana.
