Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) crews made significant progress plowing and treating roads this afternoon, with clear conditions currently on Interstate 95. Most primary and heavily-traveled secondary routes are in minor condition in the Fredericksburg area.
Overnight, VDOT crews will remain mobilized to monitor for icing, as any moisture on the road is expected to freeze. Trucks will circulate to check for slick and hazardous road conditions, and will spread sand and salt to reduce icing and improve motorist traction.
