Vine and Hollywood Projects

Project Overview

The Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities (DOT&PF), in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), is undertaking three projects to improve Vine Road and Hollywood Road in the Matanuska-Susitna Borough (Mat-Su). The three projects are as follows – Vine Road Improvements: KGB Road to Hollywood Road; Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP): Vine Road at Hollywood Road Intersection Improvements; Hollywood Road: Vine Road to Big Lake Road Pavement Preservation. Short descriptions and a project area map for each project are below.

Vine Road Improvements: KGB Road to Hollywood Road

DOT&PF is working on a project to reconstruct Vine Road between Knik-Goose Bay Road and Hollywood Road. The project will reconstruct 0.6 miles of the existing two-lane road to increase capacity, address safety, and meet current design standards. Improvements will include:

  • reconstructing the roadbed
  • widening shoulders
  • drainage improvements
  • adding a pedestrian pathway
  • ADA improvements
  • signing and striping

Right-of-Way (ROW) acquisitions and utility relocations will be necessary.

The purpose of this project is to address capacity needs, safety improvements, and improve roadway geometry to current design standards.

HSIP: Vine Road at Hollywood Road Intersection Improvements

DOT&PF is developing a project to improve the intersection of Vine Road and Hollywood Road. Improvements will include installation of a single-lane roundabout and may include:

  • improved drainage
  • pedestrian accommodations
  • landscaping
  • illumination
  • signing and striping
  • ADA improvements

Utility relocation and Right-of-Way (ROW) acquisition will be necessary.

The purpose of this project is to improve intersection safety and pedestrian access. The intersection currently experiences a crash rate higher than the statewide average for this type of intersection. View the Roundabouts in Alaska: Faster, Safer, Smarter page to learn more about roundabouts.

Hollywood Road: Vine Road to Big Lake Road Pavement Preservation

DOT&PF is developing a project to resurface Hollywood Road between Big Lake Road to the west and Vine Road to the east. Improvements may include:

  • minor roadbed improvements
  • drainage improvements
  • signing and striping

The purpose of this project is to extend the surface life of the roadway and reduce maintenance costs.
