The long-running effort to create a new east-west thoroughfare across northern Iowa is marking another milestone. Shirley Phillips, president of the Highway 20 Corridor Association, says a new stretch of the four-lane road is under construction in northwest Iowa’s Woodbury County.


Completing the 30-mile stretch from Early to Correctionville is evidently not on the drawing board and Phillips says there is no timetable for it.


The next meeting of the Highway 20 Corridor Association will be in Sioux City on July 11th.
