Occoquan Road (Route 906) between Horner Road and Old Bridge Road will close to through traffic from 9 p.m. Friday, Sept. 18, until 5 a.m. Monday, Sept. 21, weather permitting, the Virginia Department of Transportation said Sept. 15.

An overturned tractor-trailer has closed all southbound travel lanes of Interstate 95 at mile marker 145 in Stafford County, the Virginia Department of Transportation said Friday night.
The crash is about 1.3 miles north of Exit 143 (Garrisonville Road / Aquia), VDOT’s I-95 alert feed said. Traffic was being squeezed past the scene on the left shoulder. About four miles of congestion was building toward the wreck as of VDOT’s 8:19 p.m. alert.
The motion was made by Spotsylvania County Supervisor Lori Hayes and seconded by Stafford County Supervisor Deuntay T. Diggs. It carried with one abstention.
FAMPO Administrator Ian Ollis, the Director of Transportation Planning, explained the resolution during his report. He said the draft Build America 250 bill, the proposed successor to the Infrastructure and Jobs Act, already contains two provisions relevant to earlier committee discussions on large trucks.
