The Virginia Surface Transportation Plan (VSTP) is a long range transportation plan that identifies key issues and needs Virginia residents and businesses will need to address over the next 25 years. The plan provides recommendations for a safe, reliable, sustainable and efficient multimodal transportation system. The 2035 VSTP Update is based on the 2035 VSTP that was developed in 2010. The Update evaluates the needs and recommendations of the previous plan in light of changing federal and state policies. What are today’s key issues? Virginia is changing in many ways. Urban areas are growing, the population is aging, roads are becoming more congested, and trade is becoming more competitive. Virginia’s transportation systems must adapt to meet changing needs by reducing congestion, protecting the environment, and preserving quality of life. Government agencies struggle to maintain programs and services while cutting budgets. Virginia’s transportation systems need expansions and repairs to meet current and future needs, but funding is stagnant. Federal and state agencies are increasingly using performance metrics to identify key investments and maximize taxpayer dollars. What are the key recommendations? This side of the map shows key recommendations for the highway, rail and transit systems. The back side shows recommendations for cross-modal improvements, including Transportation Demand Management, technology-based initiatives called ITS, Park & Ride facilities, and Public-Private Partnership projects that leverage private funds for transportation improvements.

VDOT analyzed the congestion, safety and reliability of the road network using quantitative measures of capacity, speed, crashes, and travel time to identify areas of greatest need. Key recommendations were identified and ranked based on advancing VTrans goals. DRPT developed three scenarios to understand the funds that would be necessary to meet the backlog of transit vehicle replacement needs and what transit service improvements, expansions and new systems could be provided. DRPT also identified rail needs based on system analysis and by collaborating with freight rail operators and passenger rail providers. Both agencies incorporated public comments from a series of public meetings in August and October 2012, and also using virtual comment periods in order to provide multiple venues to collect feedback. Where do our transportation funds come from? Virginia’s main source of funding at the state level comes from the Commonwealth Transportation Fund (CTF). The main revenue sources for the CTF include taxes and fees on gasoline, vehicle sales, vehicle registration, licenses, and recordation among others. Monies from the CTF are allocated in the Six-Year Improvement Program, which funds highway, road, bridge, rail, transit, bicycle, pedestrian and other transportation improvements throughout the state. VTrans2035 While the VSTP is Virginia’s recommendations-based transportation plan, VTrans is the overarching policy plan that establishes the vision, goals, and investment priorities for the future of transportation. The VSTP follows the policy direction of VTrans by ensuring that the VSTP’s key recommendations work towards achieving the VTrans goals. The Governor’s Office of Intermodal Planning and Investment recently published the VTrans2035 Update, which introduces a framework for performance-based planning. The next iteration of VTrans and the VSTP will further integrate this framework into the project selection process. £ ¤ 301 £ ¤ 58 £ ¤ 522 £ ¤ 33 £ ¤ 460 £ ¤ 360 £ ¤ 501 £ ¤ 60 £ ¤ 220 £ ¤ 250 £ ¤ 19 £ ¤ 258 £ ¤ 340 £ ¤ 29 £ ¤ 221 £ ¤ 17 £ ¤ 23 £ ¤ 50 £ ¤ 211 £ ¤ 13 £ ¤ 1 £ ¤ 11 £ ¤ 360 £ ¤ 421 £ ¤ 58 £ ¤ 460 £ ¤ 19 £ ¤ 58 £ ¤ 220 £ ¤ 29 £ ¤ 33 £ ¤ 522 £ ¤ 460 £ ¤ 58 £ ¤ 360 £ ¤ 360 £ ¤ 11 £ ¤ 58 £ ¤ 501 £ ¤ 340 £ ¤ 522 £ ¤ 220 £ ¤ 360 £ ¤ 58 £ ¤ 340 £ ¤ 29 £ ¤ 15 £ ¤ 460 £ ¤ 460 £ ¤ 58 £ ¤ 58 £ ¤ 29 £ ¤ 340 £ ¤ 58 £ ¤ 58 £ ¤ 11 £ ¤ 221 £ ¤ 360 £ ¤ 11 £ ¤ 360 £ ¤ 15 £ ¤ 522 £ ¤ 58 £ ¤ 522 £ ¤ 17 £ ¤ 17 £ ¤ 460 £ ¤ 58 £ ¤ 340 £ ¤ 58 £ ¤ 29 £ ¤ 15 £ ¤ 501 £ ¤ 60 £ ¤ 460 £ ¤ 33 £ ¤ 340 £ ¤ 17 £ ¤ 250 £ ¤ 17 £ ¤ 522 £ ¤ 58 £ ¤ 220 £ ¤ 15 £ ¤ 15 £ ¤ 15 £ ¤ 33 £ ¤ 258 £ ¤ 460 £ ¤ 460 £ ¤ 460 £ ¤ 15 £ ¤ 58 £ ¤ 360 £ ¤ 11 £ ¤ 13 £ ¤ 19 £ ¤ 15 £ ¤ 23 £ ¤ 220 £ ¤ 29 £ ¤ 17 £ ¤ 13 U V 10 U V 65 U V 40 U V 16 U V 208 U V 6 U V 267 U V 3 U V 80 U V 55 U V 114 U V 83 U V 8 U V 57 U V 895 U V 20 U V 46 U V 7 U V 33 U V 31 U V 72 U V 122 U V 70 U V 137 U V 200 U V 234 U V 28 U V 207 U V 37 U V 100 U V 106 U V 49 U V 123 U V 150 U V 156 U V 419 U V 199 U V 151 U V 167 U V 107 U V 20 U V 10 U V 40 U V 16 U V 156 U V 40 U V 150 U V 72 U V 83 U V 7 U V 28 U V 83 U V 20 U V 80 U V 3 U V 123 U V 3 U V 267 U V 307 U V 33 § ¨ ¦ 81 § ¨ ¦ 81 § ¨ ¦ 77 § ¨ ¦ 85 § ¨ ¦ 64 § ¨ ¦ 64 § ¨ ¦ 95 § ¨ ¦ 66 § ¨ ¦ 295 § ¨ ¦ 581 § ¨ ¦ 664 § ¨ ¦ 264 § ¨ ¦ 495 § ¨ ¦ 395 § ¨ ¦ 464 § ¨ ¦ 195 § ¨ ¦ 95 § ¨ ¦ 64 § ¨ ¦ 264 § ¨ ¦ 81 § ¨ ¦ 77 § ¨ ¦ 66 § ¨ ¦ 81 § ¨ ¦ 81 § ¨ ¦ 81 § ¨ ¦ 77 § ¨ ¦ 95 § ¨ ¦ 95 § ¨ ¦ 95 § ¨ ¦ 64 § ¨ ¦ 64 § ¨ ¦ 95 § ¨ ¦ 95 § ¨ ¦ 64 § ¨ ¦ 64 § ¨ ¦ 81 § ¨ ¦ 81 Suffolk Virginia Beach Chesapeake Hampton Norfolk Poquoson Newport News Richmond Danville Roanoke Lynchburg Portsmouth Salem Staunton Petersburg Bristol Galax Alexandria Harrisonburg Radford Waynesboro Hopewell Norton Manassas Franklin Martinsville Fairfax Bedford Emporia Winchester Fredericksburg Charlottesville Williamsburg Buena Vista Covington Colonial Heights Lexington Falls Church Manassas Park LEE ACCOMACK AUGUSTA BATH HALIFAX SCOTT WISE BEDFORD FRANKLIN LOUISA PITTSYLVANIA WYTHE SUSSEX SMYTH FAUQUIER PAGE GILES ALBEMARLE ROCKINGHAM HENRY FLOYD NELSON PATRICK RUSSELL BLAND CAROLINE CRAIG CARROLL NORTHAMPTON LOUDOUN AMHERST TAZEWELL HANOVER FAIRFAX ESSEX SURRY CAMPBELL BRUNSWICK GRAYSON BOTETOURT ROCKBRIDGE AMELIA MECKLENBURG BUCHANAN DINWIDDIE BUCKINGHAM CHARLOTTE WASHINGTON ORANGE YORK SOUTHAMPTON HIGHLAND FREDERICK CULPEPER ALLEGHANY PULASKI SHENANDOAH LUNENBURG MADISON ROANOKE CHESTERFIELD NOTTOWAY DICKENSON FLUVANNA SPOTSYLVANIA STAFFORD MONTGOMERY HENRICO WARREN MATHEWS APPOMATTOX ISLE OF WIGHT CLARKE POWHATAN GREENSVILLE GLOUCESTER KING & QUEEN CUMBERLAND NEW KENT PRINCE WILLIAM PRINCE EDWARD GREENE LANCASTER RICHMOND KING WILLIAM MIDDLESEX PRINCE GEORGE RAPPAHANNOCK JAMES CITY WESTMORELAND NORTHUMBERLAND CHARLES CITY KING GEORGE GOOCHLAND ARLINGTON Chincoteague Blacksburg Wytheville Leesburg Pulaski Bluefield Smithfield Saltville Christiansburg South Boston Ashland Abingdon Luray Front Royal Culpeper Tazewell Farmville Vienna South Hill Wise Marion Richlands Altavista Herndon Vinton Lebanon Orange Blackstone Elkton Warrenton Rocky Mount Big Stone Gap Strasburg Woodstock Pearisburg Clifton Forge Chase City Bridgewater Dumfries Narrows Grottoes 0 20 40 Miles 10 Expanded Existing Transit Services 1 Based on Population Growth and Performance Highways 2 Improvement to Existing Roadway New Roadway Maintenance of Existing Highway Expanded Rural Transit Service Expanded Urban Transit Service Expanded Urban & Rural Transit Services Human Services Transportation Only Rail Improvements Maintenance of Existing Railway Spot Improvements Rails 3 1 All 67 transit systems and 49 human services transportation agencies in Virginia have recommendations in the VSTP, including capacity expansion, ITS deployment, and TDM strategies, in addition to introducing new service where transit service does not yet exist. 2 Highway recommendations for the VSTP focus on the Statewide Mobility System (SMS) network of roadways. Although the SMS is comprised of just 8 percent of Virginia’s 57,729 highway miles, it accounts for 66% of all vehicle miles traveled on the Commonwealth’s highway system. 3 Rail recommendations include improvements for Class I railroads (CSX and Norfolk Southern), shortline railroads, Amtrak intercity passenger rail, and Virginia Railway Express commuter rail. 4 This map shows the US bicycle routes and major pedestrian and bicycle trails.
