The MOA is proposing an extension of 48th Avenue that will parallel Tudor Road and provide access to future development in the 3500 Tudor area. This road would connect the intersection of Boniface Parkway to the intersection of 48th Avenue and Bragaw Street and would provide improved connectivity to Abbott Loop and Dowling Road. This important road link was identified in the East Anchorage Study of Transportation and the MOA Long Range Transportation Plan to provide much needed east/west connectivity through Anchorage. This project will enhance transportation system connectivity, improve traffic circulation and reduce congestion at the Lake Otis Parkway and Tudor Road intersection. Construction is currently anticipated to occur in 2008. In addition, a 48-inch water transmission main would be routed within the proposed 48th Avenue corridor. The construction of the proposed roadways and the AWWU water main may occur in different phases.

Other components of the proposed action include:   New storm drain facilities,   Signal upgrades at Boniface Parkway/Tudor Road,   New signal at 48th Avenue and Bragaw Street,   New pedestrian facilities and trail connections,   Street lighting, and   Landscape enhancements.
