AML Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) Project
Transportation and land use projects will improve physical connectivity and accessibility across Alaska, especially for remote and underserved communities. By upgrading roads, boardroads, ports, and transit systems, these initiatives will boost economic development and support the efficient movement of people and goods. Thoughtful land use planning will help preserve natural resources while promoting smart growth and sustainable development. These projects will enhance quality of life and build stronger, more connected communities throughout the state.
