This photo of a car engulfed in flames was sent to us by a PLN reader who was driving on Joplin Road on Saturday, May 22.

The reader tells us she came upon the car already engulfed in flames and called 9-1-1. The car was parked in the road, about 2 miles west of Quantico National Cemetery.


Businesses are opening back up, and once again, workers are being asked to bike to work.

After taking a hiatus last year due to the pandemic, the annual Bike to Work Day in the Washington area will be held tomorrow. There are several outdoor pit stops in the region, including six in Prince William County and one in Manassas, where riders can stop off for a free t-shirt and for some water (we’ll list those locations at the bottom of this post), and participants must register online for an appointment in which to visit the pit stop and get the free t-shirt.


As the region reopens, eyes are shifting back to the roads as workers head back to the office.

Orange cones are still a constant on Route 28 west of Manassas as crews work to widen the road.

This project includes widening just over a mile of Route 28 from a four-lane undivided roadway to a six-lane divided roadway. In addition to widening the road, crews are also installing storm drainage improvements, stormwater management facilities, pedestrian facilities, traffic signals, utility improvements.


More orange cones could be coming to northern Woodbridge and the Occoquan areas.
