PROJECT OVERVIEW
The Sterling Highway MP 45-60 project aims to bring the highway up to current standards for a rural principal arterial to efficiently and safely serve through-traffic, local community traffic, and traffic bound for recreation destinations in the area.
CONSTRUCTION PHASING PLAN AND SCHEDULE
The project's current plan and schedule proposes six (6) stages. The figure illustrates the construction phasing approach that will be followed based on available funding and if the State of Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities (DOT&PF) is successful with securing funds outside the traditional methods. The anticipated number of construction seasons are presented in the timeline for each stage.
- Stage 1A, construction was completed in 2023
- Stages 3 and 4, which included pre-liminary earthwork and drainage, was completed in 2025
- Stage 2, the Juneau Creek Bridge, is currently under construction
- Stage 1B is currently under construction
- Stages 5 and 6, are anticipated to achieve 95% design in early 2027
- Completion and opening of the Juneau Creek Alternative is predicted to occur in 2030
These dates are dependent on the timing of funding allocations, as project funding is obtained the expected completion and opening date will be adjusted.
