Phase 1: Phase 1 of the project will address deficiencies between Milepost 0 to 3.1 including: pavement, embankment repairs, and guardrail replacement, drainage and signage improvements.

Future Phases: The extent and detail of future phases to rehabilitate the Klondike Highway between MP 2.6 to the Canadian Boarder will be determined at a later date.

The project team is currently working on preliminary design and environmental analysis. A Categorical Exclusion will be completed for this project per the Federal Highway Administration’s National Environmental Policy Act guidance and the DOT&PF’s Environmental Procedures Manual.
