This study examines the feasibility of making a major financial investment in the improvement of U.S. 20 between Sioux City and Fort Dodge, Iowa. This 119-mile (191-km) highway segment of U.S. 20 currently includes 97 miles (156 km) of 2-lane highway and 22 miles (35 km) of 4-lane highway (on the west end near Sioux City and a short section near Holstein). This 119-mile (191-km) segment is predominantly rural in nature, and serves a region of Iowa that has not been economically prospering. Local business leaders and residents have long desired major improvements to this highway segment, not only because of the safety and travel efficiency implications, but also because of the belief that the highway, as mainly a two-lane facility, is retarding the corridor area's economic growth and well being. The study was divided into five sequential tasks: (A) Evaluation of Existing U.S. 20; (B) Improvement Alternatives, Costs and Traffic; (C) Screening of Alternative Candidate Improvements; (D) Economic Feasibility Analysis; and (E) Interpretation and Comparisons.

This study was commissioned by the City of Clinton, Iowa through grants made to Clinton County, Iowa by the Clinton County Gaming Association. This study was commissioned in order to study and analyze the need for improvements to the US Highway 30 corridor from Cedar Rapids to Interstate 88 and Chicago, as well as to analyze how Clinton's transportation system can be optimized to fit into an enhanced mobility network that would spur economic development as well as improve safety. The study was separated into two phases. The first phase completed the research of the corridor and transportation analysis of the alternatives along with costs. The second phase was to select the preferred alternative and included meetings with adjacent communities and state/federal agencies and gain support for the US 30 project.
