What stipulations come with the creation of a UTSD?
A county that has an approved urban transportation service district will have the same maintenance responsibilities as cities and towns and will receive the urban maintenance payment (“urban rate”) as specified in ยง 33.1-41.1. These responsibilities include all operational activities and decisions regarding the roadways that are part of the UTSD. The memorandum of agreement between the locality and the Commonwealth Transportation Board will address responsibility for operational activities and decisions where roadways under the control of the state intersect those under control of the locality.
