Public Meeting No. 2: AMATS: Fireweed Lane Rehabilitation

Tuesday, June 2, 2026
5:00 – 7:00 p.m.
The Nave
3502 Spenard Road, Anchorage, AK

The Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities (DOT&PF), in cooperation with the Municipality of Anchorage (MOA), is hosting the second open house for the AMATS: Fireweed Lane Rehabilitation project.

This project proposes to rehabilitate Fireweed Lane from Spenard Road to the Seward Highway to improve safety, bring the roadway and non-motorized facilities up to current design standards, improve motorized and active transportation needs, and address business circulation and access along the corridor. In January 2026, this road was reclassified as a Collector in the MOA Official Streets & Highways Plan. The project team has been refining design alternatives, as required under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process before selecting an alternative to move forward into final design.

Come learn about the refined alternatives, ask questions, and share comments directly with the project team. Meeting materials will be available on the project website beginning June 2, 2026. Comments can be submitted during the meeting, online, or in writing.
