It has multiple issues including NPOV, Organization, basic grammar, and some irrelevant information. The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) article is currently a stub and needs to be expanded badly. HOT lane controversy and budget problems should be addressed in NOVA as well as a better overview. The Virginia HOT Lanes article is a stub. If anyone can expand on it, please do so. The Alexandria, Virginia article needs more citations and re-wording, especially in the "neighborhoods" section Guidelines Tagging and assessment Any articles that are within the scope of this project should be tagged with the project banners of WikiProject Virginia.
