Northern Virginia congestion is the second worst in the country, and improvements and expansions are long overdue. Now that private investors have come forward and funding is available to make these improvements, construction is taking place right away. While this will make it challenging to get around in the short term, the long-term effect will be the biggest improvements to the Northern Virginia transportation system in decades.

HOT lanes are tolled lanes that operate alongside existing highway lanes to provide users with a faster and more reliable travel option. Buses, carpools (HOV-3), motorcycles and emergency vehicles will have free access to HOT lanes. Drivers with fewer than three occupants can choose to pay to access the lanes.  Tolls for the HOT lanes will change according to traffic conditions to regulate demand for the lanes and keep them congestion free - even during peak hours.
