Virginia’s Office of Public-Private Partnerships (VAP3) is responsible for developing and implementing a statewide program for project delivery via the Public-Private Transportation Act (PPTA) of 1995, the Public-Private Education and Facilities Act (PPEA) of 2002, and other alternative project delivery methods.
The Virginia P3 office works in conjunction with the Secretary of Transportation, Virginia Department of Transportation, Department of Rail and Public Transportation, Department of Aviation, Department of Motor Vehicles, Commercial Space Flight Authority, and the Virginia Port Authority and focuses on the development of public-private projects across all modes of transportation.
Additionally, the VAP3 has broadened their expertise to include social and vertical infrastructure P3 projects. These non-transportation projects include potential P3 projects such as solar energy development, cell tower/wireless projects, air rights, facilities, etc. These projects include collaboration with diverse state agencies such as the Department of Mines, Minerals, and Energy, and Department of Conservation and Recreation.
