Alaska's Quartz Lake may get a causeway

  • The 230-foot causeway would have a vehicle turnaround and boat launch at its end.

    • FAIRBANKS, Alaska (AP) — A 230-foot causeway would be built into a popular interior Alaska lake under a proposal advanced by state park officials.

    The raised road into Quartz Lake, which is 20 miles north of Delta Junction, would give boaters a deeper boat launch and more parking. The causeway as proposed in a preliminary design would be 24 feet wide and 6 feet to 8 feet above the water with a vehicle turnaround and boat launch at its end.
