  • 130954 Opinion by Justice Leroy F
    Present: Kinser, C.J., Millette, Mims, McClanahan, and Powell, JJ., and Russell and Koontz, S.JJ. ELIZABETH RIVER CROSSINGS OPCO, LLC v. Record No. 130954 OPINION BY JUSTICE LEROY F. MILLETTE, JR. DANNY MEEKS, ET AL. October 31, 2013 VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION v. Record No. 130955 DANNY MEEKS, ET AL. FROM THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE CITY OF PORTSMOUTH James A. Cales, Jr., Judge Designate In this appeal we hold that the General Assembly did not unconstitutionally delegate its power of taxation to the Virginia Department of Transportation ("VDOT") and Elizabeth River Crossings OpCo, LLC ("ERC") under the terms of the Public-Private Transportation Act of 1995, Code § 56-556 et seq. ("PPTA"), and that the Comprehensive Agreement between VDOT and ERC does not abridge the Commonwealth's police power. I. Facts and Proceedings A. History of Tunnels Crossing the Elizabeth River A branch of the Elizabeth River separates the City of Portsmouth from the City of Norfolk. The first tunnel crossing the Elizabeth River between Portsmouth and Norfolk was the two- lane Downtown Tunnel, which opened in 1952. The Downtown Tunnel experienced "steadily increasing traffic . at levels substantially higher than those originally projected." In response, the General Assembly authorized the construction of an additional crossing in 1956. The Midtown Tunnel was subsequently built a short distance northwest of the Downtown Tunnel and was opened in 1962. By 1973, the General Assembly was made aware that traffic through the Downtown Tunnel had reached capacity, with substantial congestion being commonplace and likely to get worse. Further, the Midtown Tunnel was projected to reach capacity within a few years.

  • Economic Effects of Newly Imposed Tolls on Heavily Traveled Tunnel
    Journal of Regional Analysis & Policy 49(1): 78{91 A Tale of Two Tunnels: Economic Effects of Newly Imposed Tolls on Heavily Traveled Tunnel Venues in Virginia James V. Koch Old Dominion University Ziniya Zahedi Old Dominion University Received: 11/15/2018 Accepted: 01/22/2019 Abstract Many studies have examined the reaction of drivers either to the opening of new roads, bridges and tunnels that assess tolls upon those who use them, or to driver reactions when existing tolls are increased. This study examines a much less common situation|the imposition of tolls on two existing, heavily traveled tunnel venues. Ordinarily, driver demand is price inelastic in tolled situations, but not so here. Initial driver reactions to the new tolls were strongly negative, though this response did dissipate somewhat over time. Critical issues here include the availability of viable substitute free travel venues; the amount of time lost by drivers when the substitutes are used; and, the disparate impact of the new tolls upon the cities adjacent to the tolled tunnels. These results may discipline policy-makers and investors who regard tolls as enticing solutions to their problems. 1 Introduction Once tolls have been established on roads, bridges and tunnels, increases in those tolls are a regular occur- rence. What happens, however, when a government decides to place tolls on vehicles that traverse heavily used, but previously free highway venues? This is an unusual circumstance in the United States. The tolling situation examined in this paper focuses on the Commonwealth of Virginia, which via a 58-year public-private partnership with the Elizabeth River Company, expanded and improved two existing tunnels that carry traffic between the cities of Norfolk and Portsmouth in the 1.75 million-person Hampton Roads1 area in Southeast Virginia.

  • South Norfolk Jordan Bridge (“SNJB”) Is a 5,372 Ft Fixed Bridge That Connects the City of Chesapeake to the City of Portsmouth Over the Elizabeth River In
    TOLL REVENUE NEW BUILD / REPLACEMENT SOUTH NORFOLK PRIVATIZATION PRIVATE FINANCING UNSOLICITED BID JORDAN BRIDGE CHESAPEAKE, VA The South Norfolk Jordan Bridge (“SNJB”) is a 5,372 ft fixed bridge that connects the City of Chesapeake to the City of Portsmouth over the Elizabeth River in Virginia. The City of Chesapeake had decommissioned the original Jordan Bridge in November 2008. An unsolicited proposal submitted by United Bridge Partners (“UBP”) to replace the Jordan Bridge with a new, privately owned bridge was approved by the City of Chesapeake in January 20091 by executing an Acquisition and Development Agreement (“ADA”) between UBP and the City of Chesapeake. As part of the ADA, UBP assumed responsibility to demolish the existing Jordan Bridge, aquired the right of way and easments associated with the bridge, and the right to toll, design, construct, finance, operate and assume ownership of a new bridge and associated tolling facilities on the SNJB. The construction of the SNJB was reported to be privately financed. Project revenue on the SNJB comes from tolls, set by the private operator with no defined limit, which are collected electronically on the bridge2. Note: the facts of this case study were reviewed by UBP. We have provided Chesapeake footnotes to describe instances where UBP disputes information in the public domain.

  • 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).
