Chena River Walk Costs Under Review | Anchorage News
Description
Fairbanks is eyeing a new $7M scenic riverwalk along the Chena — but with inflation and budget constraints, officials are rethinking design to slash costs while keeping the dream alive. Mayor Hopkins wants a budget-friendly path connecting to a footbridge, stretching 1,600 feet west to Peger Road, with federal funds covering land and local dollars covering construction. Public support remains strong, and a design update is expected by August — with hopes of breaking ground within two years.
