Construct service road

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) awarded $1,981,483.59 under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106) to the Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities on July 28, 2025, to construct a new 3,000-foot gravel service road at an airport associated with Anchorage, Alaska. The service road will provide designated personnel and vehicles with an alternate access path to the existing security gate, bringing the airport into conformity with current FAA standards. The project will be completed by July 27, 2029.

As a civilian project grant under the Airport Improvement Program, the funding supports the development and modernization of airport infrastructure to maintain a nationwide system of public-use airports adequate to meet civil aeronautics needs. The Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities, the state's primary transportation authority, will serve as the implementing agency responsible for project execution and compliance with applicable federal requirements, including environmental assessments and periodic reporting on project expenditures and progress.
