Knik Arm Bridge, Bridge project location in Anchorage, United States
The proposed Knik Arm Bridge spans 1.74 miles across Cook Inlet, connecting Anchorage to the Matanuska-Susitna Borough in Alaska with two traffic lanes.
Alaska Railroad engineers first suggested constructing a bridge across Knik Arm in 1923 to establish a direct route to the state interior region.
The bridge project generated substantial discussion among Anchorage residents, leading to the formation of community groups focused on infrastructure development and environmental preservation.
Construction estimates for the Knik Arm Bridge range between 700 and 800 million dollars, with additional costs for a tunnel under Government Hill.
The Federal Highway Administration approved the project after extensive studies, yet legislative actions regarding funding mechanisms repeatedly failed to advance the initiative.
