Welcome back to a Potomac Local News series, “Meet Prince William.”
We’ve started this series so Prince William County residents can get to know the important people working behind the scenes to make the county run smoothly and efficiently. This is an opportunity to learn from experts on the county. Potomac Local has asked each leader the same questions in bold, and their respective answers will be found below.
The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) has activated new pedestrian crosswalks at four intersections along Route 3 (Plank Road) in Spotsylvania County, between Salem Church Road and Gordon Road. The upgrades are part of VDOT’s Statewide Pedestrian Safety Action Plan, aimed at reducing pedestrian injuries and fatalities.
Crosswalks and signal equipment were added at Gordon Road, Chancellors Village Lane/Single Oak Road, Old Plank Road/Five Mile Road Extended, and near the Salem Church Crossing and Chancellor Center shopping centers. Equipment is scheduled to go live overnight on October 15, with full functionality starting Friday, October 17. Pedestrians will now have a dedicated crossing phase, and new median refuge areas will allow them to cross in stages.
