Eastern Iowa Trail Projects Dominate Local Plans For Federal Aid

The extension of the Hoover Nature Trail, among a number of local transportation projects, will get federal funding sooner than later, according to a state document.The Hoover Trail would extend from City Hall in Ely to the Johnson County line thanks to $760,000 in federal aid in fiscal 2016, according to the 2016-19 Statewide Transportation Improvement Program, which is required to detail the use of federal money in state and city projects.“By the beginning of summer, end of spring, they could be out there paving the trail,” said Brandon Whyte, a multimodal transportation planner for the Corridor Metropolitan Planning Organization.
