    PROPERTY OF Iowa DOT library HOWAFIO NEEOLES TAMMEN & BEFIGENOOFF January 24, 1975 Mr. Raymond L. Kassel Deputy Chief Engineer of Planning Iowa State Highway Commission Ames, Iowa 50010 Dear Mr. Kasse 1: We respectfully submit herewith our Supplemental Report on the studies and investigations of the construction of two new Mississippi River Toll Bridges at Dubuque, Iowa and the imposition of tolls in the present Julien Dubuque Bridge. The new bridges are known as the City Is land Bridge and the Route 520 Bridge. · Summary and Recommendations The following conclusions and recommendations are based upon Howard, Needles, Tammen and Bergendoff's estimated project costs and the traffic and revenue estimates prepared by Wilbur Smith & Associates, Inc., as presented in this report and previous reports and.studies. 1. Constructing the City Island Bridge as a four-lane toll facility with the existing Eagle Point Bridge as a private toll facility, and with the Julien Dubuque Bridge remaining "free", and with no additional river crossings in the area is not a feasible alternate. 2. Constructing the City Island Bridge as a four-lane toll facility; constructing the Route 520 bridge as a two­ lane toll facility; and imposing tolls on the existing Julien Dubuque Bridge appears to warrant more detailed structure cost and traffic-revenue studies. Authority and Purpose of Supplemental Report On September 18, 1974, the Iowa State Highway Commission authorized Howard, Needles, Tammen and Bergendoff, with Wilbur Smith & Associates, Inc., as a sub-contractor, to perform engineering services related to ~tpdating the October, 1968 study of Mississippi River Toll Bridges of Dubuque, Iowa.

  • Community Facilities
    DUBUQUE COUNTY SMART PLAN Community Facilities Introduction When choosing a community to live in, the community facilities that serve residents’ basic needs are an important factor. Education, safety, and health care are factors that potential residents and employers look at when choosing where to live or locate a business. In many cases, the needs for community facilities cross municipal boundaries, and as a result, regional intergovernmental coordination and coordination between the public and private sector are fundamental to providing the best quality community facilities. Improved coordination allows communities to combine resources to eliminate duplication of services and achieve economies of scale. Intergovernmental coordination is already occurring across the region. Local governments within the region have mutual aid agreements for fire and police services and both public school districts serve multiple communities. Coordination between the public and private sector facility providers is also imperative. Private entities in Dubuque County provide education, emergency medical services, hospital services, and childcare facilities. Local governments need to work with private facilities providers to provide the highest level of service to their residents. The goal of this chapter is to provide high quality community facilities to all residents of Dubuque County by maintaining the existing intergovernmental and public-private facilities relationships, and looking for areas to establish new relationships. This chapter will provide an inventory of the Dubuque County’s community facilities, as they exist today, and will then provide a list of goals and objectives that will help the region provide the best quality community facilities to its residents. The region’s primary community facilities are included in Maps 1.1 through 1.7.
