The Iowa Department of Transportation (Iowa DOT) last week presented the Iowa Transportation Commission with its draft FY 2022-2026 Iowa Transportation Improvement Program.
The program documents investments in Iowa’s multimodal transportation system covering aviation, public transit, railroads, trails, and highways. The Commission and the Iowa DOT say they remain committed to providing modern, safe, and efficient transportation services to the public. The Commission is currently scheduled to consider approval of the program at its meeting to be held on June 8.
A major component of the program is the highway program that documents programmed investments in the Primary Highway System for the next five years. For FY 2022-2026, approximately $3.6 billion is forecast to be available for right of way and highway construction.
