On Wednesday, the City of Carmel was presented with a $3.5 million check by Anna Gremling, Executive Director of the Indianapolis Metropolitan Planning Organization (IMPO) for construction of the 116th Street Path from Towne Road to Spring Mill Road.
Carmel Director of Engineering Jeremy Kashman submitted the project application in late 2023 when the IMPO hosted its call for projects, and the city was formally awarded on April 17 at the IMPO’s Policy Committee meeting.
Award recipients in this highly competitive process are selected based on a list of criteria guided by the goals of federal and regional transportation programs with the ultimate goal of selecting high-quality and high-impact projects that help the region meet its objectives. The construction of this portion of multi-use path on the north side of 116th Street will serve as a vital connection on Carmel’s west side and includes connectivity to two public parks, a new school, a retail center, and a hospital.
Construction is expected to begin in the spring of 2027.
