Second Crossing, First Priority: Planning Juneau’s Future

from First Things First Hosted by First Things First Alaska Foundation

In this episode of the First Things First podcast, host Dano sits down with board director Mac Miners and executive director Don Habiger to discuss the long-debated second crossing for Juneau. The conversation explores why the project matters for economic growth, traffic relief, housing development, and community resiliency. They break down where the project currently stands in the planning process, why a western crossing site is being advocated, and how safety considerations — including concerns related to the Salmon Creek Dam — could influence location decisions. The episode ends with a call to action for residents to engage with city leaders and help move the project from decades of discussion toward real progress.
