A new interchange linking two Fairbanks expressways, which will be discussed at an FNSB Assembly meeting tonight, is based on the same diverging diamond design used to join Anchorage's Muldoon Road and the Glenn Highway.

A new diverging diamond interchange, with a temporary Farmers Loop connection, is being designed for Fairbanks’ Steese and Johansen Expressways.

The design has been scoped by Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities engineers since 2018, but requires local municipalities to grant the state planning authority. It’s up for a public hearing this week before the Fairbanks North Star Borough Assembly, but it is missing a trail underpass the borough and other groups have asked for.

”With the forecast traffic, if we do nothing, we see the entire network in this area failing,” Galligan said. ”This would essentially turn this whole area into gridlock without any kind of improvement.” They show cost and environmental considerations, the impact on moving a Church of Jesus Christ LDS building on the corner, the flow into and out of Farmer’s Loop Road and how bike and pedestrian lanes will be built. But there’s nothing in the design documents about a trail connection under the roadway.
