HNS highway milepost 10 erosion restoration

The Federal Highway Administration awarded the Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities $2,701,251.79 on September 18, 2025, under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) to construct a riprap revetment along approximately 1,000 linear feet of the Chilkat River from Haines Highway milepoint 9.125 to milepoint 9.250 for resiliency improvements. The project, titled HNS Highway Milepost 10 Erosion Restoration, was designed with state funds under PJ SDRER00639. Work is performed in Alaska with a completion date of June 30, 2027. The Highway Planning and Construction program assists states in providing for construction, preservation, and improvement of highways through annual funding allocations combining statutory formula and discretionary allocations authorized under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. Most projects must be located on public roads not functionally classified as minor rural collectors and local roads, though highway safety activities and infrastructure resilience work qualify for eligibility.
