AMES – The Iowa Transportation Commission will conduct four public input meetings around the state during 2014. The meetings will give Iowans opportunities to present ideas and comments directly to the commissioners concerning transportation policies and programs, without traveling to Ames.
The four public input meetings are scheduled for April 8 at the Honey Creek Resort State Park at Rathbun Lake, June 10 in Perry, Aug. 12 in Cedar Rapids, and Oct. 14 in Sioux Center.
Commissioners encourage representatives of regional and metropolitan planning organizations, cities, counties, chambers of commerce, economic development groups, and modal transportation providers to attend. All other interested groups and individuals are also invited to participate.
Items that may be discussed at the meetings include: the Iowa Transportation Improvement Program; transportation policies; and highway, aviation, rail, river, trail and transit issues.
To obtain a scheduled time on the agenda for one of the Commission’s public input meetings, contact the Iowa Department of Transportation’s Office of Program Management, 800 Lincoln Way, Ames, Iowa 50010, telephone 515-239-1148
