The Copper River Highway extends 49.5 miles (79.7 km) from Cordova along the old railbed of the Copper River and Northwestern Railway. Construction began in 1945, and was originally intended to link Cordova with the state highway system at Chitina. The Million Dollar Bridge, which had carried trains until the CR&NW shut down, was converted for highway use. It is one of two discontinuous segments of Alaska Route 10. The highway past mile 36 has been de facto abandoned since 2011 due to erosion of the approach to Bridge 339.

- Der Copper River Highway ist eine Straße in Alaska, die von Cordova im Osten des Prince William Sounds aus etwa 90 km in nordöstlicher Richtung entlang der ehemaligen Trasse der Copper River and Northwestern Railway bis zum Copper River verläuft. Er ist Teil der Alaska Route 10. Der Bau war bis kurz hinter die Brücke fortgeschritten, als das Karfreitagsbeben von 1964 die Brücke schwer beschädigte und die Bauarbeiten stoppte. Die Brücke wurde provisorisch repariert und wieder genutzt. Die vollständige Wiederherstellung wurde erst 2005 beendet. (de)
