Gold Hill Road Bicycle/Pedestrian Facility
Project No. TE-0002(238)/63293

UPDATE, as of December 7, 2011: Widening shoulders has been selected as the preferred alternative. This will provide 4-foot shoulders for the length of Gold Hill road. Construction is tentatively scheduled for spring 2016. For more information please see the FAQ and graphics under "Project Information."

The Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities (DOT& PF) is proposing to construct a new bicycle/pedestrian facility along Gold Hill Road, extending 3.4 miles between the intersections of the Parks Highway and Sheep Creek Road in Fairbanks. Gold Hill Road currently has two eleven foot lanes with one foot paved shoulders.

The purpose of this project is to enhance pedestrian and bicycle safety, promote non-motorized transportation, and improve safety during events that utilize the route. The project will also link Gold Hill Road to the existing Parks Highway bicycle/pedestrian facility.
