TITLE:  Iowa 149, Linn County

 

DISCUSSION/BACKGROUND:

 

To provide a major route between Dubuque, Cedar Rapids and Interstate 80, Iowa 149 in Linn County should be re‑designated as US 151 and its description deleted from the Primary Road System to reflect this re‑designation.

 

Iowa 149 begins at the Linn‑Benton County Line at the east corporation line of Walford and travels northeasterly via the City of Fairfax to a junction with US 30, 151 and 218 near Cedar Rapids.

 

PROPOSAL/ACTION RECOMMENDATION:

 

It is recommended to approve deleting the description of Iowa 149 in Linn County from the Primary Road System.

 

Old Description ‑ Iowa 149 and its extensions in Linn County described as follows:

 

Beginning on the Linn‑Benton County Line (east corporation line of the City of Walford) at a point approximately 1200 feet north of the SW Corner Section 30‑T82N‑R8W, Linn County (SE Corner Section 25‑T82N‑R9W, Benton County); thence in a northeasterly direction through Sections 30, 19, 20, 17 and 16‑T82N‑R8W to the south corporation line of the City of Fairfax connecting with an unnamed street.

TITLE:  Iowa 149, Linn County

 

DISCUSSION/BACKGROUND:

 

Iowa 149 begins on the Linn‑Benton County line at the east corporation line of the City of Walford, and travels northeasterly via the City of Fairfax to a junction with US 30, 151, and 218 in the City of Cedar Rapids.

 

Due to the relocation of US 30 and US 218 in the Cedar Rapids area, the official description of Iowa 149 should be revised to terminate at the junction of relocated US 30 and US 218 in the Cedar Rapids area. This revision would shorten Iowa 149 approximately two miles.

 

PROPOSAL/ACTION RECOMMENDATION:

 

It is recommended the commission approve deleting the present description of Iowa 149 in Linn County from the primary road system and approve including the attached new description of Iowa 149 in the primary road system.

Beginning on the Linn‑Benton county line (east corporation line of the City of Walford) at a point approximately 1200 feet north of the SW Corner Section 30‑T82N‑R8W, Linn County (SE Corner Section 25‑T82N‑R9W, Benton County); thence in a northeasterly direction through Sections 30, 19, 20, 17 and 16‑T82N‑R8W to the south corporation line of the City of Fairfax connecting with an unnamed street.

TITLE:  Iowa 149, Linn County

Iowa 149 begins at the Linn-Benton County line at Walford and travels northeasterly to 16th Avenue SW (junction US 30, 151 and 218) in Cedar Rapids via the City of Fairfax.

 

A review of the primary road system records indicates the present description of Iowa 149 in Linn County terminates at 1st Street NW, which is an error.  The official description needs to be revised with a terminus of 16th Avenue SW (junction US 30, 151, and 218) to make it consistent with the actual existing route.

It is recommended that the old description of Iowa 149 in Linn County be deleted and the new description, as referred to in the attached detailed description, be included in the primary road system.
