Land Use Permits

The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) requires written authorization from the agency before any work is performed on VDOT property under the jurisdiction of VDOT. Written permission is granted by a land use permit or a state-authorized contract let by VDOT.

The Land Use Permit Section establishes the policy and guidelines for VDOT's Land Use permits. Most Land Use Permits may be obtained at VDOT residency offices. Certain special permits, such as permits to access limited access facilities are issued through the Central Office Permit Section:
