HN title says "... road access from USA to Alaska".

"Contiguous USA to Alaska" would be fine, but ~"USA to USA" is poorly-worded.

Not confusing, mind you. Just poorly-worded!

If you spend any time living in Hawaii or Alaska, and then move to the mainland, you will receive a shockingly high frequency of questions about what it's like to move to the US.

GP might have similar experiences.

For non-US readers, or for the geopolitically-unaware, Hawaii and Alaska became US territories in the late 1800s, but didn't become states until 1959.
