Significant changes for 2009

Below is a list of significant changes to the 2009 CLRP and the FY 2010-2015 TIP.  This listing covers changes only to those projects that are considered to be regionally significant, i.e., interstates, principal arterials and some minor arterials, as well as transit facilities.  A complete list of all projects planned is included in the 2009 CLRP and FY 2010-2015 TIP Air Quality Conformity Inputs.

In contrast to previous years, there are no significant new projects being added to this year’s CLRP update.  With state and local budgets facing drastic shortfalls, most of the changes proposed will delay the completion dates of those projects and in some cases, remove projects from the plan altogether.  The projects in each jurisdiction below have been grouped together based on the nature of the change; a delay of five to nine years, a delay of ten years or more, or removal from the Plan.  Other changes to  regionally significant projects in Virginia can be found below.  Projects that are delayed less than five years and changes to non-regionally significant projects can be found in the 2009 CLRP and FY 2010-2015 TIP Air Quality Conformity Inputs.  A map number is included in the list to help locate affected projects on maps of major highway and transit projects in the CLRP.
