The Indiana Department of Transportation announced that the agency will begin accepting applications on Monday, August 6, 2018 for matching funds for shovel-ready local construction projects through Community Crossings, the State\u2019s local road and bridge matching grant program.<\/p>\n

Material costs for chip sealing and crack filling operations are also eligible for funds.<\/p>\n
Projects submitted to INDOT for funding will be evaluated based on need, traffic volume, local support, the impact on connectivity and mobility within the community, and regional economic significance.<\/p>\n
Community Crossings is open to all local government units in the State of Indiana.<\/p>\n
Cities and towns with a population of fewer than 10,000 will receive funds using a 75\/25 match.<\/p>\n
