Greenway Tolls, Rt. 7 Interchange on Board Agenda

Supervisors will also consider organizational matters, including the election of the board’s vice chairman

 

The Loudoun Board of Supervisors has a heavy agenda planned for its Jan. 2 business meeting from organizational matters and electing a chairman to opposing Greenway toll hikes and resolving a dispute about the Route 7/Ashburn Village Boulevard Interchange.

Election of Vice Chairman – Since Supervisor Janet Clarke (R-Blue Ridge) announced in December that she would not seek a second term as vice chairman this year, the board must elect someone else who will perform the chairman’s duties in his absence.

Ashburn Center North – Latisys-Ashburn North LLC, of Englewood, CO, has submitted special exception requests to permit data center uses on 11 acres east of Ashburn Village Boulevard and north of Redrum Drive.

Ashburn Village/Route 7 Interchange – A years-long dispute over construction of the Ashburn Village Boulevard/Route 7 interchange could come closer to an end as supervisors consider paying a portion of a necessary redesign. Developer Miller & Smith agreed to build the interchange when One Loudoun was approved because the interchange near that development (Loudoun County Parkway/Route 7) had already been planned for construction by the county.

Greenway Tolls – Supervisors Shawn Williams (R-Broad Run) and Ralph Buona (R-Ashburn) are asking the board to support a letter to the State Corporation Commission opposing a toll hike request by the owners of the Dulles Greenway, Toll Road Investors Partnership, a subsidiary of Australia-based Macquarie Group.

Any chance this meeting will provide us an update on the Delgaudio investigation? Or has the tactic all along been to shove it under the rug and ignore the ethical issues?

No stadium until Miller and Smith complete the interchange

No Toll Increase

So, Buona and Williams are outraged by TRIP II's 3.54% toll increase, but look the other way as MWAA voted to raise tolls 55% over the next 12 months for the rail project they both supported?
It's time to say NO to MWAA. If they are going to raise tolls, have them do it on the Dulles Access Rd, not the Dulles Toll Rd. Rep. Wolf supports the idea, lets see some action on it.
