Hampton Roads Military Transportation Needs Study

Phase I: Highway Network Analysis (FY 2011)

 Approved by HRTPO Board – September 2011.

Phase II: Military Commuter Survey (FY 2012)

 Approved by HRTPO Board – September 2012.

Phase III: Roadways Serving the Military and Sea Level Rise/Storm Surge (FY 2013)

 Builds on previous studies and related work to estimate

the relative sea level rise and potential storm surge threats to the “Roadways Serving the Military” network established in Phase I.

Recommendations

For HRTPO Board

  • Consider relative sea level rise/storm surge impacts when selecting future

transportation projects. For Military and Supporting Sites

  • Encourage operators at each site to work with VDOT/Cities/Counties to develop

detour plans for potentially submerged “Roadways Serving the Military”. For VDOT, Cities, and Counties

  • Consider latest projections for relative sea level rise/storm surge when a roadway

project is designed.

  • Conduct further studies to determine impact on drainage systems.
