Summary
President Chad Blessinger reported preliminary discussions about Dubois County possibly taking ownership of 10.4 miles of US 231 in coordination with Huntingburg and Jasper and noted Lochmueller Group and INDOT are studying access roads and interchanges.
President Chad A. Blessinger told Dubois County Commissioners on May 5 that he attended a meeting about the Mid States Corridor and preliminary discussions regarding the possibility of the county taking ownership of portions of U.S. 231.
Blessinger said the potential transfer would involve about 10.4 miles of roadway for the county, with the City of Huntingburg and the City of Jasper taking separate portions (3.38 miles for Huntingburg and 5.91 miles for Jasper were cited). Lochmueller Group and the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) are working on possible access roads and interchange options tied to the corridor. Commissioners did not take action on the matter; Blessinger encouraged citizens with questions to contact Lochmueller Group.
The discussion was presented as preliminary and informational; no formal agreements, funding commitments or timelines were recorded in the meeting minutes.
