The Iowa Department of Transportation will be holding an open house on proposed improvements to Highway 30 Wednesday, April 2 from 4 to 6 p.m.

The open house will be held at Mechanicsville Elementary School (609 125th Street).

According to Sam Shea, transportation planner for the Iowa Department of Transportation, the open house is to let people know of upcoming projects for the next two years.

“We will be resurfacing the existing travel lanes this year,” Shea said. “Next year we will be adding paved shoulders, turn lanes, and passing lanes. This begins just east of Lisbon and goes to the west border of Stanwood.”

A video on the project will be live before the meeting as well and online through April 16 at https://bit.ly.com/idot6486.
