HB 851 Paving of unpaved secondary roads; "pave-in-place" program.
Introduced by: Joe T. May | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Paving of unpaved secondary roads; "pave-in-place" program. Allows the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) to consider paving roads with less than 40-foot rights-of-way if the land for the project is acquired by means other than by gift. This treatment is presently limited only to projects where the land is acquired by gift. For the "pave-in-place" program of paving other unpaved roads on less than 40-foot rights-of-way with limited vehicle travel volumes, the bill provides the following minimum specifications: pavement 18 feet wide, shoulders one foot wide on either side of the pavement, and adequate drainage ditches along the outer edge of each shoulder. Deviations from these standards towards greater pavement or shoulder widths may be made on a case-by-case basis.
