SUMMARY AS PASSED:

Location of highway routes. Requires that VDOT’s route location hearings be conducted in a “traditional format” that allows citizens an opportunity to address their comments directly to VDOT representatives in a structured, formal process. VDOT is allowed to hold “open forums” as well, but these are to be used to supplement traditional, formal hearings, not to replace them.
