68 million. The committee shifted Blairs Ferry Road (Palo) out and phased Edgewood Road Extension to free up funding, underscoring the priority placed on this safety project. Multiple public comments cited heavy traffic tied to nearby data center construction and repeated crashes, especially affecting teen drivers.The decision means federal STBG funds are now programmed, but detailed design, ROW, utilities, and construction contracting will be handled by Fairfax and Iowa DOT in upcoming phases. This presents a near‑term opportunity for traffic engineering and roadway design firms, safety consultants, and construction management providers to support roundabout design, public outreach, work zone traffic control, and eventual construction delivery for a politically visible safety project.

Project will likely require close coordination with Iowa DOT given US 151’s status as a state highway and the use of federal safety/STBG funds.
