COLUMBUS, Ind. – The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) announced Thursday that it had awarded over $200 million in Community Crossings matching grants for local road and bridge projects across 245 Indiana cities, towns, and counties.
The City of Columbus and Bartholomew County will each receive $1.5 million of that funding. Jackson County will get almost $1.5 million and Seymour will receive $1.3 million. Jennings County and North Vernon will be awarded about $1.5 million each and Brown County and Nashville will receive over $1.2 million combined.
