Virginia will spend $18.6 billion to study, develop and build more than 3,600 transportation projects through 2023 under the latest Six-Year Improvement Program approved by the Commonwealth Transportation Board.
More than $15.2 billion will go to highway projects, with $1.1 billion earmarked for “state of good repair” efforts statewide. The program also incorporates projects prioritized under Virginia’s highly acclaimed Smart Scale scoring system, and provides the Virginia Dept. of Transportation with a budget of $5.4 billion for FY 2018, which begins July 1, 2017.
