35 mile ORV riding park

This $333,300 Formula Grant awarded on September 13, 2023 by the Federal Highway Administration (CFDA 20.219 Recreational Trails Program) will fund the construction of a 6,000 linear foot lower loop trail as part of a new 565-acre off-road vehicle (ORV) riding park in Juneau, Alaska. The project, led by the Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities, will create Juneau's first dedicated ORV park with a gated entry area, parking lot, and a trail system designed for diverse riding levels. The funding from this grant will specifically support the construction of the lower loop segment of the trail system, while the City and Borough of Juneau will use existing funds to build the gated entry area and parking lot.
