INDOT awards road grants to Hancock County and Greenfield for state FY2027

Correction (Oct. 31): Indiana’s FY2027 Community Crossings award list confirms $319,805 for Hancock County and $364,847.50 for the City of Greenfield. The Indiana Department of Transportation says the awards were announced Oct. 28. Community Crossings supplies matching funds for eligible local road and bridge preservation; the listed amounts are grants, not total project costs. INDOT’s award list does not name the specific roads, construction contracts or completion dates for these recipients. An earlier version described a Cranberry Lake Estates project and 2027 construction schedule without a direct public project record; those details have been removed. The grants provide funding for future local infrastructure work, while project execution remains to be documented. INDOT’s award PDF is available from its Community Crossings page linked in Sources.
