Alaska DOT&PF Awarded $202,000,000 for Juneau Access Corridor Before Project Closure
Alaska DOT&PF received $202,000,000 under the Juneau Access Improvements program for a highway and ferry project that ultimately concluded with a No Action decision.
The Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities was awarded $202,000,000 through the Alaska State Legislature Capital Appropriations (Transportation) program for the Juneau Access Improvements project. The scope outlined approximately 50 miles of new highway north from Juneau from Cascade Point to north of the Katzehin River alongside a shuttle ferry connection. The funding package reflected $202M available as of 2014, including $154M federal and $48M state funds. Following a December 15, 2016 state administration decision to select the "No Action" alternative, the Federal Highway Administration approved a Final Supplemental EIS and Record of Decision adopting No Action on June 18, 2018. Consequently, no highway was built under the award.
