The Transportation Development Division’s goal is to help provide safe and convenient travel opportunities for all.  We collaborate with other County divisions and departments, along with our external stakeholders to plan, program, and deliver a wide range of projects to improve mobility and accessibility throughout Henrico County and the Richmond region.
