    Statewide Community Connectivity Action Plan

    The Statewide Community Connectivity Action Plan (SCCAP) is an initiative by the Alaska DOT&PF, in partnership with the Alaska Municipal League (AML) aimed at addressing transportation barriers across Alaska with a focus on equity. This plan involves conducting a statewide assessment to identify and evaluate challenges and then creating a prioritized list of capital projects to remove these barriers. The goal is to reconnect communities through innovative and multimodal approaches.
