Kaine said in a radio interview Thursday that within the next two weeks he will call a special session on transportation funding for the last two weeks in June.
On Richmond's WRVA radio, Kaine wouldn't elaborate on what will be in the legislation he will ask lawmakers to consider to raise money for roads.
He has repeatedly insisted that it deal with statewide funding for highway maintenance as well as regional packages for Hampton Roads and northern Virginia.
