The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) a $400,000 Formula Grant on June 24, 2025, under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) to design and install new guardrail attenuators or modernize existing guardrail attenuators at various bridge locations within Adams County. The project, designated as IR1004 and identified as T-45890, is located in the Fort Wayne District and carries an ultimate completion date of June 28, 2030. Formula Grant funding under CFDA 20.205 supports highway safety improvements and infrastructure preservation activities across eligible public roadways and bridges, with project selection occurring through state-level transportation planning processes.

INDOT engaged Adams County Cares, Inc. (doing business as County of Adams) as a sub-awardee effective September 8, 2025, to provide preliminary engineering services in support of project development. This sub-award demonstrates the typical collaborative structure whereby state departments of transportation partner with local government entities to advance project planning and engineering activities prior to construction implementation.
