Drivers headed to grandma’s house this Thanksgiving will pay more at the pump.
In fact, they’ll pay the most for a gallon of gas in the past three years. The average price for a gallon of gas in Virginia this holiday is $2.32 and $2.56 nationally, according to AAA Mid-Atlantic. Last year, drivers paid $1.98 a gallon, and $2.13 a gallon, respectively.

The Manassas Park Community Center offers a variety of martial arts programs for kids of all ages. Master Geoff Mann teaches all of the martial arts classes here at the Community Center. He received his first black belt in 1992 and is a fifth-degree black belt.
Master Geoff has been an instructor at the Community Center for 13 years. That gives him more history at Parks and Recreation than the actual building itself!
Election Day was an electoral earthquake in Virginia politics. Fourteen seats in the House of Delegates switched from Republican to Democratic members – the largest switch since 1899. Two have not yet been certified due to irregularities and three are heading to recounts. We do not know if any party will control the House and probably will not know until late in the day on the first day of session after the dust has settled.
While the new situation in the House of Delegates will create some uncertainty over the next fifty days, it will create some opportunities in Virginia public policy, but not a wholesale change of direction. The Senate of Virginia is still controlled by the Republican Party and most major committees have significant partisan majorities.
Will a lack of points in which to cross the Bull Run River lead to congestion, and excessive tolls on the soon-to-be-built Interstate 66 E-ZPass Express Lanes?
One Prince Willam County resident thinks so, and emailed VDOT (and us) about his concern:
The Potomac and Rappahannock Transportation Commission has changes in store for riders on Dec. 4, 2o17 as part of its fall service change.
From a press release:
Virginia State Police targeted HOV violators on Interstate 66.
From a press release:
BRISTOW — If all goes as planned, Interstate 66 will expand to help alleviate Northern Virginia’s crushing traffic volume and boost public transportation by the end of 2022, according to Virginia traffic officials.
Dozens of area residents turned out Thursday for a public hearing on plans for widening I-66 to include tolled express lanes outside the Capital Beltway. Three regular lanes and two express lanes will run in both directions from Haymarket in Prince William County to Dunn Loring in Fairfax County.
Turnout was strong in Prince William County as voters braved the rain to cast their votes in the 2017 General Elections.
Almost half of Prince William County’s eligible voters went to the polls Nov. 7 to decide on the next governor, lieutenant governor, attorney general and local House delegates.
