The hybrid public meeting for the I-75 at U.S. 441/U.S. 41 interchange improvements project will be held Monday, Nov. 18 at the Mason City Community Center.
The project proposes operational improvements to the I-75 at U.S. 441/U.S. 41 interchange (commonly referred to as the Ellisville interchange) by signalizing the ramp intersections, adding turn lanes, extending existing storage lanes, and accommodating U-turn movements.
South of the Ellisville interchange, the project proposes enhanced safety by converting the existing full median opening at SW Howell Street and U.S. 441/U.S. 41 to a directional median opening and providing a new signalized intersection 1,500 feet south of SW Howell Street. The movements removed from the SW Howell Street and U.S. 441/U.S. 41 intersection will be accommodated through a new roadway called Ellisville Access Road.
All participants, regardless of the platform they choose, will receive the same information on the proposed project and all comments received in-person, virtually, or electronically will be given equal consideration.
