U.S. Highway 63 Planning Study. This study
is currently underway and evaluates U.S. Highway 63 in
Waterloo from the interchange with U.S. Highway 218 to
north of Donald Street. Some of the issues this planning
study is evaluating include how best to accommodate visiting
traffic (such as would be expected when the River Renaissance
project is complete); how to encourage economic development,
especially in the downtown area near the river projects;
how best to handle the anticipated traffic flows; and how
to enhance the corridor through landscaping and other amenities.
This study is expected to be completed in September of
2004. Funding for the construction improvements recommended
in the study has yet to be appropriated.
