Iowa DOT unveils record 5-year transportation plan
Iowa officials released a $3.2 billion five year plan for 2016 to 2020, the largest in state history, boosted by the first gas tax increase in 25 years. The plan, about 20 percent above the prior year’s $2.7 billion, prioritizes highway infrastructure statewide. Commissioner Amy Reasner of Cedar Rapids notes the historic move will fund extensive road upkeep and growth.
