WHEREAS, three major highways, the Dulles Greenway, the Dulles Toll Road, and the Dulles Access Highway, provide vital highway transportation links between Dulles International Airport and surrounding localities; and

WHEREAS, in order to provide one source of funding for extending Metrorail service to Dulles Airport, tolls imposed and collected for use of the Dulles Toll Road have been increased; and

WHEREAS, of these three facilities, only the Dulles Access Highway is toll-free; and

WHEREAS, if the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority were to impose and collect tolls for use of the Dulles Access Highway, additional revenues could be generated for the rail-to-Dulles project, and increases in tolls imposed and collected for use of the Dulles Toll Road could be moderated; now, therefore, be it

RESOLVED by the House of Delegates, the Senate concurring, That the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority is hereby memorialized to impose and collect tolls for use of the Dulles Access Highway at a rate equal to or greater than the toll rate on the Dulles Toll Road, and that all Dulles Access Highway toll revenues be obligated to reduce tolls for use of the Dulles Toll Road; and, be it

RESOLVED FURTHER, That the Clerk of the House of Delegates transmit copies of this resolution to the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority so that it may be apprised of the sense of the General Assembly of Virginia in this matter.
