Iowa Highway 100 - Route Description

Route Description

Iowa 100 begins at a half-diamond interchange with Edgewood Road NE in Cedar Rapids. The road heads east along a freeway towards I-380. At I-380, the mainline of Iowa 100 passes high above the interstate. Collector-distributor lanes for each highway intersect at an intermediate level between the freeways. East of the volleyball interchange, the C-D lanes of Iowa 100 intersect Center Point Road NE before rejoining the mainline at the end of the freeway. Continuing east, Iowa 100 passes the Rockwell Collins complex on the north and the studios for KGAN-TV on the south. It enters a shopping district centered around Lindale Mall. Just east of the mall, the highway intersects U.S. Route 151 Business (US 151 Bus.), which runs along 1st Avenue.

South of 1st Avenue, Iowa 100 leaves Cedar Rapids and enters Marion. The highway turns to southeast briefly and then straightens out to the east. It roughly marks the southern extents of Marion as the only neighborhoods lie north of the highway. It continues slightly northeast and then east again and ends at an intersection with US 151 and Iowa 13 on the eastern edge of Marion.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:

    But however the forms of family life have changed and the number expanded, the role of the family has remained constant and it continues to be the major institution through which children pass en route to adulthood.
    Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)

    Why does philosophy use concepts and why does faith use symbols if both try to express the same ultimate? The answer, of course, is that the relation to the ultimate is not the same in each case. The philosophical relation is in principle a detached description of the basic structure in which the ultimate manifests itself. The relation of faith is in principle an involved expression of concern about the meaning of the ultimate for the faithful.
    Paul Tillich (1886–1965)
