Prince William County
“Part of the clutter marring the overhead scenery along U.S. 1 in
Woodbridge– about 80 aging utility poles – will be removed in coming months,
thanks to a Prince William County Board of Supervisors’ decision this week. The
board voted Tuesday to spend about $11 million in county reserve funds to bury
the lines from Mary’s Way to the Fairfax County line.
The work will be conducted in conjunction with a Virginia Department of
Transportation project to widen the northern most stretch of U.S. 1 in Prince
William County, which is set to begin next year and be completed in 2016. The
board’s decision, approved in a five to three vote, comes two weeks after some
Woodbridge residents addressed the board to ask that something be done about
the unsightly poles, many of which have deteriorated and are leaning onto one
another.”
