The funding decisions local leaders make today impact our collective future. That’s why the Central Virginia Transportation Authority would like to hear from the public about a new proposed funding scenario that includes $276.4 million to improve the region’s bike, pedestrian, bridge and highway infrastructure.

The upcoming infrastructure investments for 30 different projects will improve the mobility and quality of life for residents, while establishing an important framework for transportation planning and implementation in our region.

We are encouraging people to share feedback about what projects are most important to them.

Sharing feedback is easy. You can submit comments online or provide comments in person or via Zoom during the CVTA’s meeting on Friday, April 29.

More information is available at planrva.org.
