(Route 9 to Dulles Greenway)
Dear Catoctin District Residents,
Two important Catoctin District transportation projects will be considered tomorrow evening.
If you support improvements for
Route 15 from Montresor Road to Point of Rocks Bridge
or for
Route 7 from Route 9 to the Dulles Greenway
, please let the Commonwealth Transportation Board (CTB) know by attending tomorrow's meeting or
sending in comments.
As I mentioned in last week's newsletter, the CTB will host a fall transportation public meeting that will begin with an open house followed by a public comment period. Meeting materials are available here.

The CTB is considering Loudoun County Smart Scale applications filed for two Catoctin District projects:
Route 15 from Whites Ferry Road to Point of Rocks Bridge ($110,681,486)
Route 7 from Route 9 to the Dulles Greenway ($127,000,000)
YOUR INPUT IS IMPORTANT
The CTB will factor in public input as they
allocate public funds to transportation projects over six-fiscal years, comprising the CTB Six-Year Improvement Program (SYIP).
The CTB updates the SYIP each fiscal year. As revenue estimates are updated, new priorities are identified and existing projects advance. The fiscal year starts July 1 and ends June 30.
Every fall, public meetings are held across the state on project priorities and the SYIP. Public input is taken into consideration as the next update of the SYIP is drafted and presented to the CTB in the spring. Public meetings are held on the draft SYIP and the CTB adopts the final program in June.
Please make sure to take just a minute or two to send a comment in on one or both of our projects. It will make a difference! Please send me a quick e-mail if you were able to send in comments.
If you cannot attend a meeting you may send your comments on highway projects to Infrastructure Investment Director, VDOT, 1401 E. Broad St, Richmond, Virginia 23219 or also to
Comments will be accepted until December 13, 2018.
