Inventory: FHWA NBI 2024 · last ETL August 2026
FHWA NBI record, refreshed with each annual release.
ARKANSAS RANGE RD in Fairbanks North Star, Alaska sits above 50% of rated Alaska bridges on inventory load rating (34 t), while its 2022 build year is earlier than 1% of Fairbanks North Star's recorded-year cohort (111 bridges).
ARKANSAS RANGE RD in Fairbanks North Star, Alaska is rated Good in the FHWA's 2024 National Bridge Inventory. Built in 2022, it carries 3 rated components on the inspecting agency's 0-9 scale, and its weakest reported component scores 7. The lowest applicable rating sets the federal condition category, so this Good result describes the weakest reported component rather than the structure as a whole. No NBI category is a closure decision or a live crossing-safety verdict.
