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:
Eastbound Dale Boulevard (Route 784) between Minnieville Road and Forestdale Avenue will have daytime lane closures (weather permitting) Monday, April 6 through Friday, April 10 to replace a stormwater pipe, according to the Virginia Department of Transportation.
The single-lane closures will occur between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. each day.
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.
Even with the federal government encouraging social distancing, neighbors in the small town of Occoquan are still seeing a lot of each other.

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.
This is one of the best things I’ve seen online in recent days, and this truly is part of the Downtown Manassas culture, where over the years hosting 1 Million Cups Prince William at CenterFuse co-working center (where I also have a workspace, and you should, too, once this storm passes), I’ve seen business owners come together time and again to support each other.
With school, work, and public facility closures, as well as the 131 cases of coronavirus in Prince William County alone, as of today, the world is feeling like a rather frightening place.
To alleviate some of that fear, the Prince William County Health District has created a coronavirus call center, where people can ask general questions about the virus or discuss what to do if they experience symptoms of the disease.
