  • 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.
