Residents are invited to review and comment on proposed upgrades to Minnie Street during a public open house hosted by the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities (DOT&PF).
The open house will focus on planned improvements along Minnie Street between Illinois Street and the Noyes Slough bridge. Proposed changes include installing new ADA-accessible sidewalks on both sides of the roadway, relocating overhead utilities underground, enhancing drainage and stormwater treatment, and resurfacing the street with new pavement, striping, and signage to improve safety and travel conditions.
The event is scheduled for February 3, 2026, from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m., at Fairbanks City Hall, located at 800 Cushman Street in the Council Chambers.
DOT&PF representatives will be available to answer questions, explain design elements, and gather feedback from community members. Officials say public input will help refine the project before it moves forward.
