Keep Alaska Moving through service and infrastructure

Preferred Alternative: Standard Shoulder Limited Tree and Vegetative Clearing

Yankovich Road – Separated Path Simulation shows trees at the property line would conflict with a path. Yankovich Road – Standard Shoulder Simulation shows more trees could remain with widened shoulders.
