Major Moves

In 2005, former Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels launched “Major Moves,” an aggressive 10-year transportation plan to significantly improve and expand Indiana’s highway infrastructure. Major Moves was funded with $2.6 billion in revenue from the lease of the Indiana Toll Road. In addition to toll road lease proceeds, INDOT leveraged $71 million in funding from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) to enhance and accelerate several Major Moves projects.
