In between Santa Claus Lane and Snowman Lane in North Pole, two intersections are undergoing construction work this summer.
According to Aaron Leslie, Engineering Technician Journeyman with the Alaska Department of Transportation. “We are installing two new pedestrian facilities, those are sidewalks, 10 feet wide, on 5th and 8th Avenue in North Pole.”
This project is creating sidewalks where none existed prior, according to Leslie, with sidewalks that had previously terminated now wrapping around to adjoin the next street.Meanwhile, the goal is for the 8th avenue construction to be completed in the next week or two. “Got some striping and signing to do, but the sidewalks themselves and the asphalt will be done by the end of this week, hopefully,” Leslie said.
