Where did H2H come from?
Connecting the Seward Highway to the Glenn Highway was discussed as early as 1963 (see the 1963 Anchorage Freeway Study). In 2001 the Anchorage Metropolitan Area Transportation Solutions (AMATS) initiated the East Anchorage Study of Transportation (EAST). The EAST study concluded that connecting the Seward and Glenn Highways was essential to solving traffic congestion in Anchorage. When AMATS embarked on a new LRTP, the Seward Highway to Glenn Highway Connection (H2H) project was included and adopted in 2005 as part of the 2025 Anchorage Bowl Long Range Transportation Plan.
