Capital Funding Proposed to Replace Four Bridges on the Alaska, Richardson & Steese!
Interior Alaskans will start to see significant improvements along the Alaska Richardson and Steese Highways with the replacement of four additional bridges under the Governor’s Amended FY24 Capital Budget.
“We have bridge infrastructure on our National Highway System routes in the interior that date back to the World War Two era,” said Ryan Anderson, Commissioner, Department of Transportation & Public Facilities (DOT&PF). “We have a great opportunity to replace aging assets, improve safety, and ensure economic vitality to Alaska’s Interior.”
The four bridges will be added to the department’s plan to replace bridges in this critical corridor, which will now include:• Alaska Highway at Robertson River • Alaska Highway at Johnson River • Alaska Highway at Gerstle River • Richardson Highway MP 346 (Northbound) at Chena Flood Control• Steese Highway at Chena Hot Springs Road Undercrossing
