Traffic Impact Analysis performed for new developments in VirginiaAt the urging of Virginia Governor Timothy Kaine, the 2006 Virginia State Legislature passed into law a bill requiring the establishment of statewide standards to ensure that a traffic impact analysis is performed for development projects that potentially impact the state-controlled transportation network. Localities will now be required to submit a traffic impact analysis for Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) review at three key stages of land use: comprehensive plans and amendments; rezonings, and site plans. For rezonings and site plan submittals, any residential development with more than 100 homes or 150 apartments units will trigger the need for a traffic impact analysis. Other land uses that generate more than 250 vehicles per hour or 2,500 vehicles per day, or that double the traffic volume on low volume roadways will also require a traffic impact analysis. This law will take effect on July 1, 2007. Read More (.PDF)
