U.S. Representative Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R-Iowa) toured the I-380/Penn Street modernization project in North Liberty on Friday with representatives from Streb Construction, of AGC of Iowa, and AGC of America.
The project is expanding I-380 from four to six lanes and includes new bridge construction, concrete replacement, and asphalt surfacing. Now more than 50 percent complete, the project will improve safety and support economic growth in one of Iowa’s fastest growing regions.
During the visit, the group viewed the work zone where a critical “lane switch” is underway, diverting traffic to newly finished lanes while older sections are removed and rebuilt. Rep. Miller-Meeks emphasized the importance of federal investment in highway infrastructure and support for Iowa’s construction workforce.
