Alaska Highway Multi-Use Trail Plan in Whitehorse

The Government of Yukon is developing a new trail plan along 30 kilometres of the Alaska Highway in Whitehorse. It will cover the area from the Carcross Cutoff to the North Klondike Highway.

This plan will help:

• provide safer trail routes to people of all ages and abilities; 
• connect Whitehorse residents with the existing trail network; and
• improve options for trail users to cross the highway. 

We want to seek your input to learn what aspects of the trail plan are important to you.

Engagement phases

This engagement has 3 different phases.

Phase 1

The 1st phase sought to gather public input about the aspects of the trail that are important to you. This feedback will help inform the draft trail plan.

The survey results helped inform the existing conditions review available in the project background report. The survey results will also help inform the development of the trail plan, which is currently underway.

Phase 2

A future phase will seek to collect feedback on the draft trail design options for the section of highway between Two Mile Hill and Porter Creek. Your feedback will help inform the trail design for this section.  Details about this phase will be shared as the project moves forward.

Phase 3

The final phase will seek to collect feedback on the draft multi-use trail plan from Carcross Cutoff to the North Klondike Highway. Your feedback will help inform the final trail plan.
