VDOT Working On Ditch Today -- One More Step Forward

VDOT crews started work on Tuesday morning to repair the ditch on the road shoulder across from the Red Fence Farm on Catharpin Road.

VDOT is to be commended for taking this important step.

We certainly hope that the costs for this repair will be assessed against the Smith Landfill because the truck that caused this ditch was headed to the Smith Dump to drop its load.

The next repair that VDOT needs to focus on is the growing super-sized pothole directly across from the entrance to the illegal Smith Dump.  The road damage at that location is significant and needs repair to stop further damage that will be even more expensive to repair.

The dump trucks literally pound this road surface as the enter and exit from this location.

    They fixed the pothole shortly after working on the ditch. Not convinced the ditch-fix is adequate though...
