Fredericksburg officials gathered Tuesday afternoon to break ground on the largest public works project in the city’s history — a $180 million upgrade and expansion of the wastewater treatment plant behind Dixon Park.
City leaders say the modernization will prepare Fredericksburg for decades of residential and industrial growth, reduce nutrient pollution in the Rappahannock River, and provide the infrastructure needed to serve new industries — including data centers planned within the city’s Technology Overlay District.
