Jacobs is proud to partner with the Don Young Port of Alaska in delivering innovative transit solutions that will serve Alaskans for generations to come. Drawing on our 150 years of experience and extensive expertise in Alaska, we provide expert program management and planning to this critical transportation hub, ensuring the vitality and livability of the communities that rely on it. Located in Anchorage, the Port of Alaska provides life sustaining resources to the State of Alaska including food, consumer goods, building materials and cars for Interior Alaskan communities, military facilities, mining operations and rural Native Alaskan villages. In addition to its local significance, the port plays a vital role nationally as it is identified as a strategic commercial seaport as part of the National Port Readiness Network. Jacobs is supporting the Port of Alaska Modernization Program. This phased upgrade of aging infrastructure is crucial to maintaining ongoing operations of the port for another 75 years. As program manager, Jacobs is overseeing and planning this modernization program that will provide four new terminals, a new onshore administrative building and the demolition of existing terminals, all while the port remains operational.Added to the challenge is the unique environment which is home to endangered species, has significant seismic risk, ice floes and a shortened construction window due to cold weather.
