Highway 75 Redesign

Our Highway 75 corridor serves as part of the US highway system and as our main street.

We want a corridor that will safely serve our community and visitors, offer safe pedestrian use and welcome travelers to our thriving community.

We are working with the Iowa DOT on a design that would change Highway 75 in Sioux Center to an enhanced 4-lane roadway. This design features two lanes of travel in each direction with medians and a center turn lane.

Construction is slated for 2023-24, with project completion set for 2025.

Safety

Designed for safety

New rapid-flashing beacons are planned for crosswalks along Highway 75. Landscaped medians calm traffic and create a safe zone for pedestrians crossing the street. They can also decrease the number of conflict points where traffic turns.

Effective & Accessible

Two lanes will help traffic flow and can allow for more space between vehicles for safety and for turning traffic.

Our Future

For years to come

City staff and the city council are considering how the highway can best serve the community today and 40 years or more from today, the anticipated lifespan of the road design.

A Sioux Center Welcome

Highway 75 is our community's front door. Streetscape elements can create a welcome impression and a theme that carries through the community.
