Why is the Countywide Transportation Plan (CTP) being updated?
A Comprehensive Plan review is required every 5 years per VA State Code (15.2-2230), and the prior CTP is dated 2001. Given the rapid growth in Loudoun County since 2001, an update appeared prudent. In October, 2005 the Loudoun Board initiated an amendment to review and update the Countywide Transportation Plan and approved funding for this effort in January 2006. In June 2006, the Loudoun Board awarded the contract to revise the CTP to the firm of Michael Baker, Jr., Inc.
