The Iowa and Illinois departments of transportation gave an update on the future of the I-80 bridge.

The I-80 Mississippi River Bridge project is expected to span about six miles, including changes to the I-80/I-88 interchange. The two departments of transportation released renderings of what the new bridge will look like. It will replace the existing bridge that opened in 1967.
