They didn't really waste any time building that. I was up that way in August and only the grade separation and maybe a bridge pier or two were built.

They've only built 1/2 of it. The rest is coming next spring.

IA 17 now follows a new, much-needed viaduct over the old Lincoln Highway and parallel railroad tracks east of Boone which opened December 12: https://who13.com/news/new-railroad-overpass-in-boone-means-less-traffic-for-entire-community/

iowahighways:
Work on a new interchange on US 218/IA 27 south of Waverly will start this year and finish in the fall of 2025. This will remove all remaining intersections on the Avenue of the Saints between Waverly and Cedar Falls.

Fredddie:
I don't know if US 61 north of Burlington has been mentioned but design work is ongoing for widening to four lanes with a target of sometime in 2025.  At work, I'm sheeting plans for the section involving the County Road H38 interchange at Mediapolis.

Is that the one where grading has begun long enough ago to be captured on Google Earth? https://goo.gl/maps/fVxdtbWaNHZ7CRH89

I haven't been in that area in years, but it's nice to see that US 61 is slowly being upgraded across the state.
