WOODBRIDGE — A new report indicates OmniRide could have done more sooner to report a missing bus to police.
The report indicates an unidentified First Transit, Inc. driver contracted by OmniRide drove commuter bus 386 on the afternoon of August 22, 2017, to its first stop at 7th and D streets in NW Washington and refused to pick up any passengers. An angry customer called OmniRide, tipping off the transit company to the problem.
Over the last two years, I have held six community meetings specifically on traffic congestion mitigation in or near the Occoquan District. Several solutions were suggested by residents including improvements to I-95 from the Route 123 interchange to the Prince William Parkway interchange.
Prince William County commuters suffer from the current configuration of I-95 south over the Occoquan River. As it stands today, traveling south, I-95 has four through lanes as you approach the I-95/Route 123 interchange.

WOODBRIDGE — When the Potomac Nationals announced Northwest Federal Credit Union bought naming rights for the field at Pfitzner Stadium, many asked:
We asked to review the lease contract between the county and the team, and it not only permits the team from selling its own advertising, but the county is also allowed to, in exchange for promotion in the stadium, enable local originations to underwrite events. Those exhibitions must take place before March 15 and after September 15, or shortly after should the team make the playoffs.
