At a Feb. 13 meeting with local leaders at the Statehouse, Iowa governor Chet Culver promised to help increase statewide support for widening U.S. Highway 20 to four lanes.
Culver pledged to help organize a series of high-profile meetings to try to convince the public to support the project.
"I've been convinced we need to finish 20. There's never been a doubt in my mind," Culver said.
