After an unusually damaging snowmelt this spring, Rosie Creek Road saw damage to portions of the road.
According to Kaitlin Williams, Publications Specialist with the DOT, “We’re going to be repaving some of those areas that were damaged. We’re going to install some additional culverts, and we’re going to be doing some work on the ditches to help mitigate the drainage.”
Some resurfacing happened last year, and that work continues in 2022 as well. “This year we just have to do the finishing touches to the project from last year,” Williams explained. She said, “Rosie Creek Road is kind of notorious for being vulnerable to permafrost and flooding. It’s kind of historically been that way.”Jeff Stutzke, Regional Hydraulics Engineer with the DOT said, “This year, it turned out to be approximately 200% over normal for the Tanana River Basin, which includes Fairbanks and Delta Junction.”The project is scheduled to begin in mid-June and last for one month. “We’re working hard on the remedy.
The Department of Transportation says only one lane will be closed at a time, so those living in the area should have no trouble with access.
