The Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities (DOT&PF) is updating the Interior Alaska Transportation Plan (IATP). The IATP is a 20-year regional multimodal transportation plan that will guide future public investments in transportation infrastructure in the interior Alaska region. The IATP will be developed using an efficient and inclusive outreach process.
DOT&PF is required to conduct statewide transportation planning per 23 United States Code 135 in order to receive federal highway transportation funding for Alaska. The State has developed the 2036 Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) that guides regional plans to better define unique transportation challenges in each of six state regions: Southeast, Prince William Sound, Southwest, Northwest, Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta, and Interior Alaska areas.
Statewide transportation planning is the process of developing a strategy for how the Alaska DOT&PF will implement the state’s transportation strategies, projects, and services throughout Alaska. The process is a “3-C planning process.”
This continuing, cooperative, comprehensive planning process means the state continually updates transportation plans, cooperating with stakeholders throughout communities, comprehensively considering several planning factors, as defined by United States Code (USC), the guidance in the US Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) and the Alaska Administrative Code (ACC), Title 17 – Transportation, Section 05.125.
The ACC states that during the statewide transportation planning process, the DOT&PF will consider goals and objectives that will further:
The IATP is one of the regional plans developed for specific areas of the state that and designed to address movement between communities in the Interior region. The IATP follows a similar planning process to other regional plans, including economic modeling and transportation system analysis to identify key needs and issues within the region. The IATP carries forward policies, principals, and investment strategies from Alaska’s Statewide Long-Range Transportation Plan and the State Improvement Plan.
DOT&PF develops and regularly updates five regional, multi-modal transportation plans for specific areas of the state, designed to address movement between communities in the region, and from the region to points beyond. Each of these plans incorporates economic modeling to evaluate potential projects and prioritize them to best meet state and regional goals. The IATP was last updated in 2010.
The environmental review, consultation, and other actions required by applicable Federal environmental laws for this project are being, or have been, carried out by DOT&PF pursuant to 23 U.S.C. 327 and a Memorandum of Understanding dated April 13, 2023, and executed by FHWA and DOT&PF.
