The purpose of this project is to complete a missing link in Anchorage’s trail system by developing a safe, multi-used trail connection between the Fish Creek Trail and the Tony Knowles Coastal Trail.
The trail would start north of the existing Fish Creek Trail near Rustic Goat, cross over Northern Lights on an existing bike and pedestrian bridge, and follow the railroad tracks to the Tony Knowles Coastal Trail.
The Fish Creek Trail Connection provides a safe and accessible link between the Spenard, Midtown and Turnagain neighborhoods to the Coastal Trail.
The Fish Creek Trail Connection Project is managed by Anchorage’s transportation planning agency, AMATS.
