The proposed Knik Arm bridge is one step closer to become reality as the Federal Highway administration gave the green light for the project. Knik Arm Bridge and Toll Authority – KABATA for short – announced that the approval by the federal agency now allows them to move forward with permitting, right-of-way acquisitions, final design and the financing and construction of the bridge.
