What a difference a year makes!
Last year VDOT's Six-Year Improvement Program for the state totaled $11.4 billion; this year it's $14.1 billion.
That's $2.7 billion more or a 24% increase - and these figures don't include Northern Virginia ($1.9 billion) and Hampton Roads ($1.3 billion) regional funds.
Key Northern Virginia projects in the plan include:
-
I-66/Route 28 Interchange
-
I-66/US 15 Interchange
-
I-395/Seminary Road HOV Ramp
-
I-395 Auxiliary Lane
-

(These projects are in addition to those being considered by the Northern Virginia Transportation Authority.)
