VIRGINIA CENTER FOR TRANSPORTATION INNOVATION & RESEARCH
…the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) has historically funded, constructed, and maintained all public roads. With the exceptions of Alaska, Delaware, North Carolina, and West Virginia, this is in contrast to other states, which have state oversight of primary roads but local control of and funding responsibility for secondary (or county) roads…This has spurred some localities to seek ways to obtain local funding to continue their priority projects.
