Public hearing to discuss Story County interchange

Michaela Ramm

The public is invited to attend a public meeting Tuesday by the Iowa Department of Transportation to discuss potential changes to the I-35/U.S. 30 interchange in Story County.

The meeting will take place from 5 to 6:30 p.m. Tuesday in the CrossRoad Baptist Church in Ames.

Iowa DOT officials will be present at the meeting to discuss proposed improvements to the intersection, which have been an area of public concern because of the number of car accidents that have taken place.

The meeting will be conducted in an open format, according to a news release from the DOT. No formal presentations will be made.

For more information regarding the project, contact Tony Gustafson, assistant district engineer with the Iowa DOT, by emailing [email protected] or calling 515-239-1635 or 800-899-0623.
