Gaffney Gate Entrance Improvements at Fort Wainwright

under construction

Construction project to improve the main entrance gates on Gaffney Road at Fort Wainwright. The project includes installing lighting around the commercial entrance, redoing lighting on the approach and exit of the gate, upgrading lane shacks to be compliant, and adding a structural canopy for overhead protection and as a welcome symbol. Traffic flow will be rerouted during construction, with commercial vehicles using the Montgomery Gate and personal vehicles using the commercial vehicle entrance via Steese Highway. The project aims to improve traffic flow, provide shelter from weather, and clarify the entrance to the military base.
