Stafford County officials continue to monitor the latest with the coronavirus outbreak and working to keep patients and rescue crews safe.
In a press release, county officials tell Potomac Local News they are evaluating policies and procedures on a daily basis as information is disseminated from the CDC:
During April, construction crews will start a safety widening project along sections of Route 635 (Decatur Road) and Route 628 (Ramoth Church Road) in Stafford County to expand the road shoulders.
Widening the shoulders will provide more recovery space for drivers if their vehicle strays from the travel lanes. The project is intended to reduce the risk of crashes and injuries that can result from vehicles running off the road.
Police in Manassas are looking for three men they say walked in a Home Depot and stole tools.
It happened at the big box hardware store at 8805 Liberia Avenue on March 20. The men made off with the tools and then got away in a black four-door sedan with chrome trim, said city police spokeswoman Sarah Mahoney.
Eric Wolpert, CEO at EAW Tech in Manassas, took some time out of his busy schedule of supporting his customers to, instead, support his fellow local business owners in Downtown Manassas.
