Anamosa
In what will become a monthly occurrence, representatives from Snyder & Associates came before the Anamosa City Council Dec. 14 to update them on the Highway 151 project to replace the intersection with Old Dubuque Road.
The firm had been asked to provide an updated cost estimate to the council at the previous meeting after the firm had hit their initial $100,000 in cost for services. The latest estimate put the total cost of the project at $8.114 million, roughly broken down into $2.380 million for the overpass bridge connecting the east side of the highway and the west, $5.034 million for roadway improvements and $700,000 in engineering costs. The money for the bridge âincludes only the bridge construction costs,â according to the engineerâs documents, while the roadway improvements encapsulated the rest of the construction costs, like the roundabout west of Highway 151 connecting Old Dubuque Road to Parham drive to the north and the new road off 130th Stre
