VBT : Setting the Transportation Standard

Currently, the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) has the nation’s largest program of improvement projects in progress. With $2.5 billion in projects on the street for all of 2016, the program includes work in districts throughout Virginia, from Hampton Roads to Fredericksburg to Fairfax to Roanoke.

Virginia is leading the way in putting transportation funding to good use with timely projects. Between September 2016 and December 2017, VDOT will have implemented over $4 billion in plans to improve roads and bridges, reduce congestion, aid economic development, and increase traffic flow.

So far in the 2017 fiscal year, 94% of VDOT projects are on time, and 83% are on budget. Learn more by visiting VDOT’s dashboard for productivity at http://dashboard.virginiadot.org.#sthash.rjBWkvyb.dpuf.
