Greenway Toll Hearing in Sterling Thursday

State law enabled Del. Ramadan to request hearings on private operator's toll rates.

The Virginia State Corporation Commission (SCC) has scheduled a hearing in Sterling where Loudoun residents and businesses can weigh in on current tolls charged by the Dulles Greenway.

The hearing, one of several scheduled, is part of an investigation Del. David Ramadan (R-87) requested into the toll rates charged by Greenway operator Toll Road Investors Partnership II, an entity of Australia-based Macquarie Group.

The Dulles Greenway is the 14-mile private toll road that extends the Dulles Toll Road from Dulles International Airport to Leesburg. Current rates are $5.10 during regular hours and $5.90 during rush hour at the main toll plaza.
