Transportation Accountability Commission
Created by Governor Kaine in October 2006, the Transportation Accountability Commission will work to increase accountability and performance in state transportation programs.
More specifically, the commission's responsibilities include reviewing Virginia's existing methods of promoting accountability and performance in transportation; identifying and recommending national best practices in accountability and performance for transportation; recommending quantifiable outcome measures for the major elements of the state's transportation program, including measures that incorporate effective land-use and transportation coordination; and recommending performance standards for state transportation executive and agencies.
The commission will issue an interim report to the Governor and General Assembly by May 30, 2007 and a final report by October 1, 2007.
For further background on the commission's beginnings, please read Governor Kaine's announcement news release and the Executive Order establishing the commission.
