CITY OF WAUKEE, IOWA
CITY COUNCIL MEETING COMMUNICATION
MEETING DATE: November 4, 2019
AGENDA ITEM: Consideration of approval of a resolution approving Highway 6/Hickman
Road Access Agreement
FORMAT: Resolution
SYNOPSIS INCLUDING PRO & CON: The City of Waukee entered into a four party
agreement in 2003 with the cities of Urbandale and Clive and the DOT
related to corridor access management along Highway 6 (Hickman Road).
While the agreement has served the City well related to managing access
along the Corridor, it has become outdated and obsolete, as the City has
continued to grow to the west.
The DOT has prepared a new Access Agreement that would be a four party
agreement between Waukee, Adel, Dallas County and the DOT. The new
agreement extends west to the Raccoon River and includes the same
principles and standards that was included in the original 2003 agreement.
FISCAL IMPACT INCLUDING COST/BENEFIT ANALYSIS:
COMMISSION/BOARD/COMMITTEE COMMENT:
STAFF REVIEW AND COMMENT: The proposed agreement is consistent with the Waukee
Comprehensive Plan and other planning efforts that have been done in
the past to determine access points along Highway 6. Staff has requested
several revisions which have been incorporated into the final agreement.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve the Resolution

Cooperative Agreement
U.S. 6 Corridor Access Management Plan
Adel to Waukee
This Agreement is entered into by and between the Iowa Department of Transportation, hereinafter
designated the “DOT”, the Cities of Adel and Waukee, hereinafter designated the “CITIES”, and Dallas
County, Iowa, hereinafter designated the “COUNTY”, as follows;
WHEREAS, the purpose of this Agreement is to define parameters for transportation management,
access management, land-use and development characteristics along the U.S. 6 corridor within the
limits defined.
WHEREAS, it is not the purpose of this Agreement to identify specific projects, rather, its purpose is to
establish guidelines that promote safe and efficient traffic flow and enhance and sustain economic
development along the corridor. This Agreement is intended to supersede the City of Waukee portion of
the existing 2003 Corridor Management Agreement 2003-16-085. This Agreement provides the CITIES
with a tool for managing economic development along the U.S. 6 corridor between Adel and Waukee.
WHEREAS, the designated corridor extends from the North Raccoon River in Adel east to SE Waco
Place in Waukee for a total length of approximately 8.48 miles. The preliminary corridor designation
discussed at the initial project management team meeting. The initial project management team
included the Cities of Waukee and Adel; Dallas County and the DOT.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED as follows:
1. GENERAL STANDARDS FOR MANAGEMENT OF U.S. 6:
A. OPERATIONS
1) Existing/Future Traffic Signals: have been agreed upon and established as depicted on
Exhibit “A”. Proposed traffic signals shall be located at predetermined locations, and any
additional signal locations shall meet half-mile spacing distance. Proposed traffic signals
shall meet DOT signal warrants analysis prior to installation.
• Existing traffic signals (shown as: green outlined yellow diamond symbol) are
currently located on U.S. 6 at the following: U Ave/10th Street; 6th Street; 4th Street;
Warrior Lane; Dartmoor Drive; West Gate Drive; Alice’s Road.
• Future traffic signals (shown as: yellow diamond with red circle symbol) are
currently located on U.S. 6 at the following: 288th Trail; Puckerbrush Road; County
Road R16; (one of two future connections identified on map); Richland Place; S
Avenue; T Avenue; 120.75 +/- (future connection); 120.89 +/- (future connection);
122.17 +/- (future connection); 123.14 +/- (future connection). Any additional signal
locations shall meet half mile spacing distance.

• Future full access signalized (shown as: yellow diamond) are currently located on
U.S 6. at the following: Prospect Ave; T Avenue; Waco Place.
2) Full Movement Access Locations (non-signalized): (See Exhibit “A”, shown as red circle)
These access locations will be subject to future operational restrictions, based on mainline
capacity and land use. Traffic impact analysis will be required when there is a change in
land use.
3) Right-In/Right-Out, access locations: (See Exhibit “A”, shown as blue circle) have been
identified. Improvements to the existing and the need for future local system development is
encouraged. Two of these are denoted as right-in right-out to the south only at 121.01 +/-
and 121.27 +/-.
B. PLANNING
1) Existing access connections may be required to have appropriate acceleration and
deceleration lanes, tapers and other appropriate geometric features to ensure that the
impacts of the adjoining development to the U.S. 6 corridor are fully mitigated. Full
directional access connections may also include appropriate left turn storage where
necessary.
2) At all public road intersections, the functional area of those intersections shall be
maintained. No additional access shall be allowed within the functional areas. The area
extends both upstream and downstream from the physical intersection areas and includes
the public cross street.
3) Access control should be maintained along the intersection public road connection for the
minimum distance of 150 feet, 300 feet preferred, from the near edge of the travel way of
the primary highway. This is needed to provide sufficient storage within the proposed
connection to prevent spill-back onto the abutting primary highway.
4) The CITIES land use and development regulations shall provide support for proper service
road network integration that promotes shared access and inter-parcel circulation.
Therefore, regulations should focus on requiring the use of the existing and new local
roadway system for direct commercial access. Future establishment of access roads may
require developers to build or contribute on a prorated basis for access way construction as
part of their subdivision plat approvals.
5) Should U.S. 6 be improved along the designated corridor, public road access allowed by this
agreement shall continue unless a change is agreed to by the CITIES, COUNTY, and DOT.
