INDOT Awards Money for Infrastructure Improvements

The Indiana Department of Transportation announced the recipients of federal transportation funding to invest in local road and bridge improvements, sidewalk and trail projects.

This round of funding will help communities to design, develop and purchase land for projects for bid beginning July 2021.

In Marshall County, just over $1.6 million in funding was awarded for Bridge #87 on 11th Road over the Yellow River, along with nearly $1.9 million in funds for Bridge #120 on South Upas Road over the Yellow River.

The City of Plymouth will receive just over $1.3 million for the East LaPorte Street footbridge over the Yellow River.

INDOT dedicates approximately 25 percent of its federal highway funds to support local projects each year.
