Street Improvement Project Aims to Ease Traffic Flow
Cooperation between the city and the Iowa Highway Commission accelerates traffic flow on Highway 61 by widening corners at Hast Second and Mulberry and Mulberry and Mississippi drive. Bottlenecks at Hast and West Mississippi Drive remain due to railroad stations. A plan to abandon two stations and relocate may open the way for further widening and a new station, with potential cost sharing from the highway commission. The city urges forward momentum and keeps the project “cooking on the front burner.”
