Cedar Rapids eyes Ellis Boulevard extension to Sixth Street
Cedar Rapids weighs a 4 to 5 million dollar at grade extension from Ellis Boulevard NW through MidAmerican property to Sixth Street NW to improve traffic flow and access to the Northwest Neighborhood. The plan includes a future railroad crossing near Union Pacific and requires 20 acres from MidAmerican with potential development around the intersection. City officials note faster access to First Avenue and downtown, with pedestrian and cyclist improvements and neighborhood redevelopment potential.
