🏛️ Government
The Virginia Supreme Court upheld the State Corporation Commission's decision from September 2024 to deny Toll Road Investors Partnership II's request for a toll increase on the 14-mile Dulles Greenway, where peak tolls would have risen to $8.10 and off-peak tolls to $6.40.
Loudoun County and Attorney General Jason Miyares said the ruling protects drivers and helps keep traffic on less congested public roads.
