Springville DOT plan faces local opposition over dangerous intersection
Iowa DOT proposals to fix the four lane entrance at Highway 151 near Springville were largely rejected at a public meeting. Plans including on and off ramps would take four to five years and may force bank and Casey's store relocation. Mayor Heeren favors raising roads and lowering speed to restore visibility without displacing businesses. Security State Bank opposes DOT options and backs raised road improvements. The final DOT recommendation awaits senior management approval before going to the Iowa Transportation Commission.
