On a separate note, we’re hearing rumblings about significant changes coming to Virginia’s only commuter rail system, including weekend service, which we reported last week.
The system continues to see about a third of its pre-pandemic ridership.
VDOT: “VDOT will be lifting most lane closures on interstates and other major roads from noon on Monday, July 3 until noon on Wednesday, July 5.”
I-95 Northbound
Virginia State Police: “Virginia State Police is investigating a two-vehicle fatal crash in Stafford County. The crash occurred on Monday (June 26), at 7:53 a.m. along Interstate 95 at the 134-mile marker in the local lanes.”
“A 2011 BMW sedan was traveling south on I-95 in the left lane at a slow rate of speed when it made an abrupt lane change to the right lane. A southbound 2013 Chrysler sedan was unable to avoid a collision and rear-ended the BMW. The impact caused the BMW to collide with the Jersey wall.”
