Dear CAV! Activist,

This is your chance to tell VDOT that you want FUNDAMENTAL CHANGE in how Virginia is planning its future. The Public Comment period on Virginia's 25-Year Transportation Plan is underway and official comments are due by August 31, 2004.

It appears that while VDOT sought to establish new goals for the transportation system, their funding scenarios and project focus are nearly business as usual and do not address any of our public demands and goals, such as including greater protection for the environment, better access to jobs for urban and rural residents, better access to transportation for the disabled, and more investment in pedestrian and bicycle needs.

To ensure real change in our transportation system, VDOT needs to hear from Virgina citizens about how to grow smarter with transit and better land use, not just add more lanes and larger highways. This is your chance to tell VDOT that you want and expect FUNDAMENTAL CHANGE, not business as usual.

Please take a moment to send comments to VDOT regarding VTRANS 2025. Your comments should be emailed to statewideplan@VirginiaDOT.org

Thanks for taking the time to offer your meaningful input into this process!
