STATEHOUSE (Oct. 28, 2026) — Communities in Carroll County will receive nearly $830,000 to improve roads and bridges through the Community Crossings Matching Grant Program (CCMG), said State Sen. Ron Alting (R-Lafayette).
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 Carroll County, the following communities received grants:
- Camden received $382,009.60;
- Carroll County received $135,532.80; and
- Delphi received $312,000.
"As a rural county, the roads and bridges in Carroll County often see use from heavy equipment like tractors and semis that can cause significant wear and tear," Alting said. "That's why this program is so important in ensuring our communities can make needed infrastructure improvements so our small towns keep moving forward."
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.
