  • City of Virginia Beach Comprehensive Plan – It's Our Future: a Choice City
    City of Virginia Beach Comprehensive Plan – It’s Our Future: A Choice City November 20, 2018 1.3 - SUBURBAN AREA INTRODUCTION Much of the area located north of the Green Line possesses a suburban land use pattern, meaning the area primarily consists of low- to medium-density residential land use with commercial retail, office, and service uses interspersed throughout the area. This land use pattern is the result of more than a century of the development of communities created by subdividing all or portions of the farms that defined Princess Anne County (now the City of Virginia Beach) since the 17th century. The earliest subdivisions were established in the late-19th and early-20th centuries, located adjacent to the railroad line that connected the City of Norfolk to the Town of Virginia Beach. Since the automobile was largely a novelty during these years, movement outside of the urban core cities of Norfolk and Portsmouth was either via the railroad or a poorly maintained roadway system using horse and wagon. The railroad line offered developers the opportunity to establish communities outside the urban core of Norfolk for those who desired to choose a lifestyle less intense than that of Norfolk. This trend of creating communities outside the urban core cities occurred not only here, but throughout the United States, and England as well. Eventually, the area outside the core urban cities was designated as being ‘suburban.’ Vestiges of the early suburban communities in Virginia Beach can be seen in the existing street layout of Pembroke, south of Virginia Beach Boulevard, which were established as Euclid Place (1910) and Sunny Brook (1916).

  • Affected Environment and Environmental Consequences
    Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement Chapter 3: Affected Environment & Environmental Consequences 3.15 INDIRECT AND CUMULATIVE IMPACTS 3.15.1 Regulatory Context and Methodology NEPA legislation does not mention indirect or cumulative impacts; however, the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) regulations for implementing NEPA address federal agency responsibilities applicable to indirect and cumulative considerations, analysis, and documentation requirements (40 CFR 1508.25) for the environmental consequences section of an EIS (40 CFR 1502.16) (FHWA, 2014). In addition to CEQ’s regulations, indirect and cumulative effects assessment is conducted in accordance with the requirements and processes outlined in 23 CFR Part 771, FHWA Interim Guidance: Indirect and Cumulative Impacts in NEPA (2003), FHWA Position Paper on Secondary and Cumulative Impact Assessment (1992), FHWA’s Questions and Answers on Considering Indirect and Cumulative Impacts in the NEPA Process (2015), the Transportation Research Board’s (TRB) National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 466: Desk Reference for Estimating the Indirect Effect of Proposed Transportation Projects (TRB, 2002), NCHRP Project 25-25 Task 22: Land Use Forecasting for Indirect Impacts Analysis (TRB, 2005), NCHRP Project 25-25 Task 11: Secondary/Indirect and Cumulative Effects Analysis (TRB, 2006), as well as CEQ’s Considering Cumulative Effects under the National Environmental Policy Act (1997) and Guidance on the Consideration of Past Actions in Cumulative Effects Analysis (2005). CEQ defines indirect effects as “…effects which are caused by the action and are later in time or farther removed in distance, but are still reasonably foreseeable (40 CFR 1508.8[b]). Indirect effects may include growth-inducing effects and other effects related to induced changes in the pattern of land use, population density or growth rate, and related effects on air and water and other natural systems, including ecosystems” (40 CFR 1508.8[b]).

Stephen C Brich, P.E., Commissioner of Highways VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION VITAL INFRASTRUCTURE | Page 0 VITAL INFRASTRUCTURE REPORT BUDGET ITEM 450, H. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report addresses the requirements of Chapter 2 of the 2018 General Assembly Item 450, H. (as detailed below), which requires the Commonwealth Transportation Board (“the Board”) to develop a report that addresses the following topics regarding Virginia’s large and unique bridge and tunnel structures: ● The overall condition and funding needs; ● Recommendations addressing funding within the State of Good Repair (SGR) Program; and ● Other options as identified Budget Language - Chapter 2, 2018 Appropriation Act, Item 450 H. The Commonwealth Transportation Board shall, no later than December 1, 2018, review and report to the Chairmen of the House and Senate Committees on Transportation, the Joint Transportation Accountability Commission, the House Committee on Appropriations and the Senate Committees on Finance, on the overall condition and funding needs of large and unique bridge and tunnel structures in the Commonwealth. As part of the review, the Board shall make recommendations addressing funding of such projects within the State of Good Repair program. In developing these recommendations the Board shall assess the impact of establishing a set aside from the State of Good Repair funding pot, limited use of the provisions of § 33.2-369 B., Code of Virginia, which allows for the waiving of district minimum caps in a single year, or such other options as they might identify.

  • MEMORANDUM US 13 Attachment
    MEMORANDUM TO: HRTO Subcommittee FROM: Jon Chambers, P.E. DATE: December 7, 2018 SUBJECT: Hampton Roads Transportation Operations Strategy – Phase II Corridors of Regional Significance The purpose of this document is to analyze five Corridors of Regional Significance (CORS) to identify the existing conditions and needs along these corridors. Specifically, this analysis looks at the need for high-speed communication upgrades, traffic sensors, and coordinated signal timings. The five corridors examined in this analysis are: US 13 Rt. 143/Jefferson Avenue Warwick Boulevard US 17 US 58 The following existing condition information has been compiled from GIS data. For each corridor, the existing system information has been divided into four subsections of needs: high-speed communications, traffic detectors, signal coordination, and Traveler Information Systems. The data gathered has been consolidated into a GIS database and overall map for ease of reference. The following sections provide written explanation of the contents of the maps. US 13 US 13 was examined starting in Suffolk to the west at the US 13 and Rt. 32 split, through Chesapeake and Norfolk, ending in Virginia Beach at the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel approach. Due to the extensive length of this corridor, the operational influences can vary from one end to the other. On the west end of Suffolk, the operational needs are somewhat internal to the City with traffic influences coming from US 460 and US 58 from the west, railroad crossing impacts, as well as impacts of US58 Business versus the US 58 Bypass. From Bowers Hill to the Northampton intersection, the corridor can be viewed as a parallel route to I- 64 for diversion measures.
