Hickman Road Interchange Construction

WHAT : Replacement of the interchange at Interstates 80/35 and Hickman Road.
WHY : Data shows that traffic volume in this area is projected to increase nearly 35 percent by 2042. The updated interchange will improve traffic flow and increase safety.
HOW : A diverging diamond configuration, similar to the interchange update in Ankeny at I-35 and 1st Street, will be constructed to increase safety. We’ll also be adding lanes to Hickman Road and adding lanes on I-35/80 from University to Douglas.

WHEN : The design is complete, and we’ll be taking bids on the construction of the interchange this spring with construction set to begin later this year. This is a multi-year project that is expected to be finished in 2028.
PROJECT BUDGET : $94 million
