PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY — Four years after the groundbreaking, developers are ready to begin work on a new Virginia Railway Express station at Potomac Shores.
The $20 million station is considered to be the transportation centerpiece of the transit-oriented, mixed-use community nestled on the Potomac River near Dumfries.
LAKE RIDGE — The Woodbridge District Supervisor on Monday night expressed shock that a proposed amendment to the comprehensive plan didn’t pass — one that could pave the way for up to 130 new homes.
He said the proposal would have easily won five of the eight votes needed from members of the Prince William County Board of Supervisors. Probably not his, however.
