Senate Bill 1259, intended to curb toll increases and close financing loopholes on the Dulles Greenway, has now passed both houses of the Virginia General Assembly.

Gooditis (D-10) and David A. Reid (D-32), with support from Sen. John J. Bell (D-13). County Chair Phyllis J. Randall (D-At Large) and Supervisor Matthew F. Letourneau (R-Dulles) also support the bill and were on hand for its announcement.
