Branstad Opens Highway 149 Stretch Near North English
Gov. Terry Branstad ceremoniously cuts the red tape to open an 11 mile section of Highway 149 around and north of North English at a cost of 5.4 million dollars. The road remains partially closed with shoulder work and markings unfinished north of town. South of North English is graded but not hard surfaced until next summer. The project, begun long ago, aims to improve routing for commerce and tourism while new bank facilities and potential growth emerge along the bypass.
