The Municipality of Anchorage (MOA), Project Management and Engineering Department (PM&E) is proceeding with a project to complete the 100th Avenue corridor between Minnesota Drive and King Street.

The east/west traffic corridors south of Dimond Boulevard are limited between the Old Seward Highway and Minnesota Drive. As a result, Dimond Boulevard is frequently congested with a high volume of traffic causing significant traffic delay.

This project will construct a roadway to collector standards which will improve access to business areas south of Dimond Boulevard and reduce congestion on Dimond Boulevard. The 100th Avenue extension project will include pavement, possible curb and gutter, street lighting, storm drainage, a multi-use pathway, sidewalks, and landscaping.

Construction of the first phase, from King Street to C Street, will take place in the Summer of 2008. In conjunction with Phase I, the 100th Avenue at Old Seward Highway Signalization project will be constructed in 2008 as well.
