VXU7A1/SE293VXU7A1/SE294The purpose of the Exit Glacier Area summer transportation feasibility study for Kenai Fjords National Park (KEFJ) is to understand the current transportation conditions at the Exit Glacier Area and evaluate the feasibility of a range of potential actions to improve transportation conditions. This study is not a plan and will not result in a decision or project without further planning and community engagement. However, this study will provide KEFJ and the National Park Service (NPS) Alaska Region (AKR) with information and analysis to better understand the current state of transportation access to the Exit Glacier Area and the feasibility of potential enhanced access. NPS and KEFJ are not considering an NPS-owned or operated transit system to provide park access, and are instead interested in identifying options for the park to support business opportunities for private entities. The specific goals of this study are to understand current conditions and demand for transit service to the Exit Glacier Area; identify short-term strategies to improve transportation access for visitors; and consider visitation and transportation trends and anticipate future needs
