Palmer-Fishhook Separated Pathway

  • Description:
    This project would provide a pedestrian/bicycle facility along Palmer-Fishhook Road from Trunk Road north to Edgerton Parks Road.
  • Benefits:
    Pedestrian and bicycle traffic occurs on the dangerous narrow shoulders of Palmer-Fishhook Road to access recreation sites such as Hatcher Pass, the Matanuska Valley Moose Range, and Government Peak Recreation Area. This pathway would provide a protected location for non-motorized traffic. The proposed pathway would connect to the Trunk Road pathway, the proposed Tex-Al Road pathway, and the proposed Edgerton Parks Road pathway.
  • Status:
    Additional funding is being sought through the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities “Transportation Alternatives Program.”
  • Cost:
    Estimated total cost: $4,500,000.
  • Schedule:
    Schedule is dependent on funding.
