Under a comprehensive agreement between Elizabeth River Crossings OpCo, which operates the tunnels, and the Virginia Department of Transportation, tolls can increase by 3.5% per year or at the previous year's consumer price index rate, whichever is greater. But a deferral in rate increases from 2021 has also been spread out over several years.
The “majority” of the vehicles involved in Sunday's wreck were connected to a car club and were in Portsmouth earlier in the evening and investigators are reviewing footage from the tunnel prior to the crash, a Virginia State Police spokesperson said.
