RICHMOND, Va. (WDBJ) - Funding for pay raises, passenger rail and higher education are major features of a new Virginia budget compromise.
For state employees and teachers in our area, the plan includes funding for a 5% pay raise. State Police would get a 3% bump on top of that.
The proposal also includes major funding to extend passenger rail to the New River Valley.
“I’m very pleased,” Sen. John Edwards (D-Roanoke) told WDB7 Friday morning. “$83,500,000 for passenger rail between Roanoke and Christiansburg is very exciting and I think we’re going to get it as soon as possible.” ....

The Virginia Senate narrowly approved a set of new bicycle safety laws Wednesday after killing a similar bill earlier in the session.
The Bicycle Safety Act, sponsored by Del. Chris Hurst (D-Blacksburg), passed the Senate in a 21-18 vote. The bill would force drivers to move into the other lane when passing a cyclist if they are unable to provide three feet of space. It would also allow two cyclists to ride side-by-side, making them easier to overtake.
In a recent committee meeting, Hurst said he wasn’t proposing the bill because he wanted to give some sort of special treatment to cyclists, but because these reforms would make the roads safer for everyone. ....
