VDOT Commits to Fix Deep Ditch on Catharpin Today -- Across From Red Fence Farm
VDOT Transportation and Land Use Director for Prince William County, Maria J. Sinner, committed in a telephone conversation last night to assign crews TODAY to repair the dangerous ditch created by a dump truck running off the road nearly 3 weeks ago.
The ditch, nearly three feet deep, has been an ongoing threat to traffic safety since the dump truck went off the road and its weight sank it to its axle, thereby creating the huge ditch. This damaged shoulder is less than a quarter mile from Bull Run Middle School, and the school buses traveling on this section of road are particularly at risk when the dump trucks pass going the other direction, forcing school buses further to the road shoulder.
