Abstract:
The Iowa Transportation Commission (Commission) and the Iowa Department of

Transportation (Iowa DOT) develop Iowa’s Five Year Highway Program to inform

Iowans of planned investments in our state’s primary highway system. This

brochure summarizes the 2012-2016 Iowa Highway Program (Program) and

provides information about long-term highway programming issues, through the

year 2020. The Program is typically updated and approved each year in June.

The Program documents the planned investments of highway right of way and

construction. It was developed to achieve several objectives. The primary highway

programming objective is the maintenance and preservation of Iowa’s existing

highway system, and its operational and safety features. This includes interstate

and non-interstate pavement rehabilitation or replacement, bridge rehabilitation

or replacement, and safety enhancements. There are also significant investments

to modernize three urban interstate systems, on I-29 in Sioux City, I-29/80/480 in

Council Bluffs, and I-74 in Bettendorf/Davenport.

Another highway programming objective is to maintain the scheduled completion

of capacity and economic development projects. Projects scheduled to be

completed within the previous Program continue on their current schedule.

However, due to a reduction in projected federal revenue, the Commission has

delayed by one year the initiation of construction of all multiyear, non-interstate

capacity and economic development projects that cannot be completed within

this Program. These projects are U.S. 20 in Woodbury County, U.S. 30 in Benton

County, U.S. 61 in Louisa County, and Iowa 100 in Linn County.
