This week on Talk of Alaska we chat with a state transportation policy maker, a transportation expert and you — our callers — as Alaska wrestles with transportation funding, construction and maintenance questions in the draft state transportation plan. What do you think:
- Is it time to make some public roads private?
- What’s the best way to increase the state ferry system’s revenues?
- Are costly bridges to un-developed areas the best use of diminishing transportation funds?
GUESTS:
- Jeff Ottison, planner, Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities
- Lois Epstein, Director, Alaska Transportation Priorities Project
- Live callers statewide
HOST: Steve Heimel
