Ask any Hampton Roads driver and theyll tell you that crossing a bridge or driving through a tunnel during rush hour is a slow go. The obvious answer to this daily dilemma is to build roads that can handle the volume. But when these projects come up for bid, whos on the lookout to ensure minority businesses get their piece of the transportation pie? What help is out there for these often underutilized businesses? On the next Another View, well discuss the regions transportation problems and explore the Conference of Minority Transportation Officials (COMTO) and what its doing for black businesses. Please join us when we talk transportation with State Senator Yvonne Miller, Prescott Sherrod, Tamara Poulson and Shelia Johnson. Well also take you on a walking tour in Colonial Williamsburg that doesnt hold back when it comes to the plight on the slave in early Virginia. It's all on Another View, Thursday, October 8 at 9P on WHRO-TV, digital 15.1.
Please, investigate Hampton bridge tunnel yearly expenses, and corresponding contractors, bids, and operations, schedules of works and closing of bridge lanes. Is there an audit maintained about the validity of work done in HRBT va. I feel like this drains tax payers money, PLUS and the pain of triffic to the cummuters using this bridge tunnel two- three times every week. Please, publish Hampton bridge tunnel yearly expenses.
Sincerely, roberto US NAVY RETIRED.
