Virginia State Police on Sunday escorted marchers participating in the NAACP “America’s Journey for Justice” rally. 

About 20 marchers were spotted walking along Route 1 in Woodbridge just before 5 p.m. Sunday. State troopers escorted the marchers, and traffic became congested, according to a Potomac Local reader who submitted the photo for this post.


As construction at the intersection of Route 1, Route 17 Business and Route 218 in Falmouth draws to a close, the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) will begin overnight paving work.

According to VDOT, milling paving and line stripping work will begin tomorrow night, and run through September 30.


A small concrete island blocking the flow of three travel lanes on Prince William Parkway will be moved.

With nothing more than a crosswalk signal on it today, the concrete island stands in the way of drivers and Prince William County transportation planners who would prefer to have three continuous travel lanes on eastbound Prince William Parkway at Minnieville Road in Woodbridge.
