Study Objective

 The overall purpose of this planning effort is to determ ine m ilitary

transportation needs and to provide an efficient and safe transportation network for the m ilitary in Hampton Roads.

 It updates the data/ analysis in the original Military Transportation Needs Study

(2011-2013): Phases I and III.

 It identifies the m ajor Military and Supporting Sites and “Roadways

Serving the Military in Ham pton Roads”. It determ ines deficiencies within this roadway network in order to prioritize transportation projects and solutions that im prove m ilitary travel.

Recommendations

Update LRTP Project Prioritization Tool to include revised military and supporting sites and “Roadways Serving the Military in Hampton Roads” in this 2018 Study Update

Deficient Bridges

  • Rehabilitate or replace two Structurally Deficient bridges without identified

funding

  • Victory Blvd over Paradise Creek (Portsmouth)*

*Recently selected for VDOT State of Good Repair (SBR) for full funding FY2019-2024 SYIP

  • I-264 over First Colonial Rd (Virginia Beach)**

**After recent repairs by VDOT, this bridge is no longer classified as Structurally Deficient

Vertical Clearances below Military Preferences

  • As the HRBT is rehabilitated or new tubes are added, ensure that vertical

clearance meets or exceeds the 16-foot threshold (similar to MMMBT)

  • Use minimum of 14 feet, 6 inches as non-Interstate bridge and tunnel

structures are constructed or replaced (16 locations)

Recommendations

Lane Widths below Military Preferences

  • Widen all “Roadways Serving the Military” to a minimum of 12 feet, giving

priority to STRAHNET roadways Roadways Vulnerable to Flooding

  • Consider sea level rise and potential storm surge impacts to “Roadways

Serving the Military”
