Alaska toll tunnel
In Alaska, there exists a solitary toll tunnel: the Anton Anderson Memorial Tunnel, more commonly referred to as the Whittier tunnel. This Alaskan toll tunnel spans 2.5 miles, linking the port town of Whittier on Prince William Sound to the Seward Highway and Southcentral Alaska.
The tunnel accommodates both cars and trains, facilitating transportation to the city of Whittier, Alaska. It enables a single lane of vehicle traffic to pass directly above the railroad track area, with alternating usage between automobiles and trains. Managed by the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities, the tunnel predominantly operates as a roadway throughout both the summer and winter seasons.
The tunnel [1] is used by both automobiles and trains to travel to the Whittier city in Alaska. It allows a single lane of automobile traffic to drive directly over the railroad track area. Automobiles and trains take turns using the tunnel. The Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities operates the tunnel as a highway most of the day during the summer and winter.
It costs 13 dollars for 2-axle vehicles to travel to Whittier.
You can calculate the cost of toll and fuel to drive through the Alaska tunnel using our Alaska Toll Calculator.
