James Dalton Highway / Dalton Highway is a road which is very famous, because it is one of the most dangerous road in the world. This road is a gravel road along the 414 miles, which headed straight to the north of the intersection of Elliott Highway Livengood, through the Arctic tundra to the north end, furthest in Alaska. The road was built in 1974 with $ 150 million cost of this work as a supply road to support the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System.
This is resulting in this street into the danger is that this path is not so great but traffic is becoming a big tractor and tractor-trailer trucks carrying oil. And an estimated 160 trucks per day in the summer months and 250 trucks per day in winter. So the threat was posed by the dust produced trucks and roads, mud and rocks flying who hit the windshield, making it very disturbing scene you to drive.
So if you want to pass this way then I suggest you think twice or you have to really prepare for it all with remarkable.
