Alliance for the Shenandoah Valley on proposed Interstate 81 improvements

Contributors

interstate 81Alliance for the Shenandoah Valley lead Kim Sandum comments in response to today’s announcement from Gov. Ralph Northam regarding a legislative proposal that would fund improvements along the Interstate 81 Corridor.

“We applaud the Valley legislators and Governor Northam for moving to address the critical improvements needed for I-81. We support immediate safety improvements and maximum flexibility for long-term investments, rather than a costly one-size-fits-all approach for the entire 300-mile long corridor.

“Valley residents should not be asked to pay more without assurances that they will have a strong voice in decisions about I-81 improvements. We look forward to reviewing the details in the legislation.”
