Residents will learn more about one of the most expensive road projects in Prince William County.
The county’s transportation department will hold a virtual “Transportation Tuesday” on March 14, 2023, to discuss the Route 28 Bypass, a four-lane road connecting Sudley Road, near the Prince William Medical Center in Manassas to Route 28 in Fairfax County.
The $300 million bypass will be about four miles long and wedged between the Fairmont and Loch Lomond neighborhoods in Sudley, near Manassas. County leaders have previously said construction crews might need to demolish some homes to make way for the new street, though road crews have not released a final plan for the project.
Road construction should wrap up in 2028.
More in a press release:
The next session, scheduled for March 14 at 12 PM, will provide the latest preliminary traffic progress and general design project updates on the Route 28 Bypass. Please register using this link. A recording will also be posted to the project website. We will capture additional questions from the meeting that will shape future communication and engagement.
We anticipate providing a larger update on the Route 28 Bypass design progress during a public information meeting in April 2023. The community is encouraged to propose topics and questions for upcoming Transportation Tuesdays on route28bypass.com.
Meanwhile, in Fairfax County, officials announced the kickoff for a project to widen Route 29 between Union Mill and Buckey’s Gate drives.
This project will reconstruct and widen 1.5 miles of roadway, relieving a major bottleneck during AM and PM peak hours, with lengthy backups occurring in particular at the signal for Stringfellow/Clifton roads (Route 645). The project will also correct vertical alignment to improve sight distance, add and improve shared-use paths on both sides of Route 29 and provide connectivity to pedestrian/bicycle trails at the Fairfax County Parkway/West Ox Road interchange. See project webpage for additional information.

Inspired by local physicians who were among the nation’s first to adopt the concierge medicine model, Northern Virginia is now a hub for its surging popularity. These leading physicians are redefining the patient experience with same-day appointments, direct availability, unhurried visits, and deeply personalized care:
After almost 40 years in practice, Manassas-based Internist John Cary, MD’s change to concierge medicine enabled focused attention for each individual, and the launch of his innovative diet program for those with type 2 diabetes. “The goal is to promote enough weight loss to reach an acceptable A1C of 6% with no medication,” he explains. “Achieving that can take several months of very close follow up. As I tell my patients, we are in this together.”
Jay Tyroler, MD considers his patients quite literally as family. “I believe there’s nothing more honorable than helping patients when they’re sick, or scared, or feeling vulnerable, and I care for them exactly as I would my loved ones.” Whether for a specialist referral, urgent health issue or ongoing follow up, “My patients know I’m always just a phone call away.”
