Iowa will receive more than $76.2 million in federal funding to improve roadway safety statewide, including funding for improvements in Washington County.
Washington, Cedar, Jones and Muscatine counties will share $11.6 million through the Iowa Rural Roads Safety Initiative to address high-risk rural roads identified in their safety action plans.
The funding comes through the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Safe Streets and Roads for All program, established under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.
In Washington County, planned improvements include four-foot paved shoulders with a safety edge, centerline and edgeline rumble strips, enhanced pavement markings and improved markings to help drivers navigate curves.
The work will cover a total of 27 miles along Garfield Avenue, Vine Avenue and County Road X40.
