On Friday, we were honored to be a part of the Skiffes Creek Connector ribbon cutting ceremony with Virginia Department of Transportation. Mayor Tuck of Hampton, VA presented comments on behalf of the TPO regarding this incredibly important connector. The beautiful new route allows traffic from the major distribution facilities along Green Mount Parkway to get onto I-64 easily, quickly, and, most importantly: safely; safely for them and for the residents in the surrounding neighborhoods that were impacted by the rise in truck traffic. Congratulations to everyone involved in the project!

Virginia Rep. Donald McEachin, recently reelected to 4th term in US Congress, dies at 61

We are sad to hear of the passing of Representative McEachin. We want to thank Rep. McEachin for his significant contributions to Virginia and the Hampton Roads region. We send our condolences to his family, friends, and staff, as they mourn this loss.

Tara Rountree, McEachin’s chief of staff, said in a statement late Monday: “Valiantly, for years now, we have watched him fight and triumph over the secondary effects of his colorectal cancer from 2013. Tonight, he lost that battle.”

On Friday, the TPO and Hampton Roads Planning District Commission teams got together to celebrate GIS Day with a building-wide scavenger hunt. The clues led the GIS sleuths to puzzle pieces that, when assembled, showed a location in Hampton Roads. The first team to assemble their puzzle pieces and identify the location was the winner of the challenge. This was the culmination of the week-long GIS events, including daily trivia, and was a great experience for our staff.

We are saddened to learn of the passing of former Mayor Joe Frank. Mayor Frank was a champion of regional cooperation and played an integral role in shaping the TPO and Hampton Roads Planning District Commission. We send our condolences to our friends at the City of Newport News, VA - Government and Mayor Frank’s friends and family.

Former Newport News Mayor Joe S. Frank passed away on Thursday, Oct. 27. Mayor Frank was a devoted leader who served Newport News with honor, ingenuity, and compassion for over 22 years.

Mayor Frank was a lifelong Newport News resident. He was elected to City Council in 1988 and became the city’s first directly-elected Mayor in 1996, serving in the role for 14 years. He is the city’s longest-serving Mayor.

To honor former Mayor Joe S. Frank, Mayor Price has ordered Newport News city flags be lowered immediately and remain at half-staff until sunset on Monday, Oct. 31

Anybody who rides the bus or avoids riding the bus knows that passengers could use some protection from the elements. In order to have a more pimpin' and better connected Hampton Roads with less gridlock, I ask Hampton Roads Transit to invest in covered benches at each individual stop. When a freak downpour occurs on a sunny day, people's books, paper bags, cereal, and work uniforms get soaked!!! I ask anybody who agrees to sign my petition. I am sure that if Missy Elliot or some notorious athlete were to say the same things that this petition would get millions of digital signatures. Thank you for taking the time to read this. Have a blessed day!
