Highway Page Updates

This is a list of updates to all of my highway pages so everyone can see what is new or what has changed since they last visited. The most recent updates are listed first.

October 16: A long-awaited link between central and eastern Iowa has been completed. Jeff Morrison reported that the last segment of US 30 in Benton County opened to four lanes yesterday to complete a continous four-lane highway between Ogden and Lisbon. Also, per this Iowa DOT news release, the new interchange at County Road R70 opened on October 14. The highway and both exit listings have been updated.

April 15: After reviewing the Iowa DOT's new Des Moines Area Interstate Projects page, I updated the I-35, I-80, and I-235 highway listings to show what work is being done from now through 2028. As for the last left-hand exit from I-80 west to I-235 west, it is part of the preliminary "full-build conceptual layout" released by the Iowa DOT in 2017 which is now linked from these listings, but is currently not funded.

March 27: Two updates regarding US 30:
