U.S. 63 Super 2 Planning Study #2
About the Project
Project description
The Iowa Department of Transportation is conducting a super 2 planning study on U.S. 63 from Grinnell to Hudson. The study area is from the junction with U.S. 6, 5.7 miles east of Grinnell, north to the intersection with South Hudson Road in Hudson.
What is a super 2A super 2 highway is a two-lane rural highway in which a periodic passing lane has been added to allow faster vehicles to pass. The passing lane typically alternates from one direction of travel to the other within a section of roadway, which allows periodic passing opportunities in both directions in a safe manner. The transitions at the beginning and end of the passing lane allow sufficient room for the diverging and merging traffic.
