Turbine interchange planned for I-80 I-380 corridor
Iowa DOT plans a modern turbine interchange replacing the 50 year old cloverleaf between I 380 and I 80 to ease crashes and growing traffic. The project widens interstates to eight and six lanes, relocates ramps, and adds new exits while preserving some through lanes during construction. Local residents fear disruption and rising costs while officials cite safety gains and regional connectivity.
