The Siouxland Interstate Metropolitan Planning Council (SIMPCO) and the City of Dakota City invite the submission of qualifications from experienced and qualified consultants to complete a traffic study for a portion of Pine Street. The goal of this traffic study is to analyze the traffic impacts of paving the existing gravel portion of Pine Street to D Avenue and extending the paving west to intersect Hwy 77/75 to create a complete connection between Dakota Avenue and Hwy 77/75. The analysis would consider the impacts of improvements to the intersection of Hwy 77/75 to accommodate new and future truck traffic, an extension of turning lanes, right-of-way connections to the new street, and impacts of current and potential future industrial development.
