VTrans2040 is the current long-range, statewide multimodal policy plan that provides the overarching vision and goals for transportation in the Commonwealth of Virginia. It identifies transportation conditions and trends anticipated over the comings years and the potential influence on transportation. VTrans2040 provides a vision for Virginia’s future transportation system and defines goals, objectives, and guiding principles to achieve the vision. It provides direction to state and regional transportation agencies on strategies and policies to be incorporated in their plans and programs. “We should be focused on improving the ability of Virginia businesses to move goods, attract more jobs to the Commonwealth, and improve the quality of life for all Virginians.” Governor McAuliffe June 18, 2014 VTrans Multimodal Transportation Plan (VMTP) HOW TO READ THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT MAP www.vtrans.org The General Assembly of Virginia directs the Commonwealth Transportation Board, with assistance from the Office of Intermodal Planning and Investment (OIPI), to conduct a comprehensive review of statewide transportation needs in the Statewide Transportation Plan (VTrans). This plan promotes economic development and all transportation modes, intermodal connectivity, environmental quality, accessibility for people and freight, and transportation safety. The plan includes quantifiable measures and achievable goals relating, but not limited, to congestion reduction and safety, transit and high-occupancy vehicle use, job-to-housing ratios, jobs and housing access to transit and pedestrian facilities, air quality, movement of freight by rail, and per capita vehicles miles traveled. The transportation needs review section is called the VTrans Multimodal Transportation Plan (VMTP) Needs Assessment. It outlines key multimodal issues that constrain mobility and accessibility for Virginia residents and businesses. In coordination with regional planners and stakeholders, a Needs Assessment was developed for each VDOT Construction District. This poster provides a high-level summary of the needs for VDOT’s Richmond District. Detailed findings of the full Needs Assessment are available at www.vtrans.org. The VMTP Hampton Roads District map (right) represents a high-level overview of the VMTP Needs Assessment. Need markers on the map indicate the generalized location of each VMTP need, with need-type icons adjacent to Tier 1 markers.

VTrans Multimodal Transportation Plan (VMTP)

HOW TO READ THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT MAP

www.vtrans.org

The General Assembly of Virginia directs the Commonwealth Transportation Board, with assistance from the Office of Intermodal Planning and Investment (OIPI), to conduct a comprehensive review of statewide transportation needs in the Statewide Transportation Plan (VTrans). This plan promotes economic development and all transportation modes, intermodal connectivity, environmental quality, accessibility for people and freight, and transportation safety. The plan includes quantifiable measures and achievable goals relating, but not limited, to congestion reduction and safety, transit and high-occupancy vehicle use, job-to-housing ratios, jobs and housing access to transit and pedestrian facilities, air quality, movement of freight by rail, and per capita vehicles miles traveled.

The transportation needs review section is called the VTrans Multimodal Transportation Plan (VMTP) Needs Assessment. It outlines key multimodal issues that constrain mobility and accessibility for Virginia residents and businesses. In coordination with regional planners and stakeholders, a Needs Assessment was developed for each VDOT Construction District. This poster provides a high-level summary of the needs for VDOT’s Richmond District. Detailed findings of the full Needs Assessment are available at www.vtrans.org.

The VMTP Hampton Roads District map (right) represents a high-level overview of the VMTP Needs Assessment. Need markers on the map indicate the generalized location of each VMTP need, with need-type icons adjacent to Tier 1 markers. Need locations on the map are meant to provide high-level depictions of needs in a region, rather than exact geographic locations. The Need IDs in the matrix (below) correspond with the Need IDs on the map; the matrix also includes need descriptions and need-type icons.
