Dear Subscriber,

The statewide update of Functional Classification for Collectors in Urban Areas is complete!

A recent change to FHWA guidelines required further classification of all Urban Collectors statewide. All Collectors in Urban areas must now be sub-classed as either Major or Minor Collectors.

Planners at DOT&PF headquarters and in each region examined all affected routes and assigned a Major or Minor Collector Classification.  The classifications recieved approval from FHWA on October 16, 2013.

DOT&PF's database has been updated and now reflects this Major/Minor classification.  An interactive GIS map of statewide Functional Classification can be found here.

For questions or more information about Alaska's Functional Classification visit the Functional Classification website.

Thank you for using GovDelivery to receive Functional Classification updates!
