The Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities maintains 5,609 centerline miles of roadways, 3,737 miles of which are paved. Along with state-maintained roads there are roadways maintained by boroughs, cities, villages, and native corporations spread across communities around the state. The pavement conditions of state roadways are “fair” and the state is experiencing a budget deficit, which has led to budget cuts for the highway program. Without an increase in the capital budget, Alaska will not have sufficient funding to preserve existing roadways and for future development, a particular challenge as roads must withstand Alaska’s variable climate.
