(Atlantic, Iowa) – As we’ve mentioned, the Cass County Board of Supervisors, Tuesday, approved the County Secondary Roads Five-Year Construction Program. The Iowa Department of Transportation has reviewed and approved the plan and related budget, as well. Previously, the plan would come before the Board before it is approved by the DOT, but the Iowa DOT changed the procedure for approval.

County Engineer Trent Wolken summed-up the five pages of projects and maps included in the plan, during Tuesday morning’s meeting.

Some of the projects involve the use of box-culverts instead of new bridges. Wolken said it’s too early to tell what the costs of those projects will be.
