Va. lawmakers turn cold shoulder to Fairfax transportation pleas

Virginia is unlikely to give Fairfax County any money to bridge the county’s $3 billion transportation funding gap, based on the response the County Board of Supervisors received to its pitch for those funds Tuesday.

Board members spoke for nearly an hour on the county’s self-dubbed “transportation crisis” to members of Fairfax County’s delegation to the General Assembly, only to learn that lawmakers are divided on the topic and expect no transportation-related funding to come from the state next year.
