VTrans 2035 - Virginia's long-range transportation plan

What’s the future of transportation in Virginia? What should our goals and priorities be? How should our monies be spent?

We’d love to hear your comments.

Here’s the draft report announcement, from our Deputy Secretary of Transportation:

Dear Transportation Planning Stakeholders,

Thank you for helping to plan for Virginia’s transportation future!

Sincerely,
