Survey Work Starting May 15, 2012

CRW Surveyors will be in the project area to map:

• Public right-of-way boundaries
• Utility locations
• Topography

Most of the survey work will be between Vanguard Drive and Abbott Road.

We are still in the data gathering phase of the project. Construction is not expected to occur for several years, pending funding.

As always, if you have questions, please contact Van or Wende at CRW Engineering Group at 907-562-3252 or e-mail at comments@crweng.com

Project Background

The Municipality of Anchorage's (MOA) Academy Drive / Vanguard Drive Area Traffic Circulation Improvements Project began in October 2011. The existing Academy Drive and Vanguard Drive roadways were not built to handle the expected traffic volumes resulting from the future extension of Academy Drive to the west beneath the Seward Highway to connect to 92nd Avenue.

The 92nd Avenue Connection Project, designed to alleviate congestion in the Dimond Boulevard / Seward Highway area, is being managed by the Alaska Department of Transportation (ADOT). www.brooks-alaska.com/92ndAvenueDesign

The MOA's Academy Drive / Vanguard Drive project will evaluate various transportation network alternatives to find a logical and efficient link between Academy Drive to Abbott Road that will safely accommodate increased vehicular, pedestrian, and bicycle traffic generated by the ADOT's 92nd Avenue project. The earliest construction could begin is 2014 if funding becomes available. 

The project is early in the planning phase.  Over the next several months, the planning team will want to hear from you about your expectations for the project.
