We have been trying to get a Trader Joe’s for years. There is even a fb page and so many of us have tried. A trader joe’s Or Whole Foods would be great. We have a MOM’s but we want more healthier grocers.

John, we will be working closely with Prince William County to improve the transportation infrastructure in the immediate area. Thanks for your comments.
Will you be considering the impact on the surrounding areas of Woodbridge too?? Because you need to. It’s a literal nightmare and this will only make it worse. I won’t stand behind this without WELL thought...

That area is already terribly congested. There are days when it takes 30 minutes to go 1 mile in that area! And the above reply shows the developers are not even considering the impact on traffic beyond...

If you want to put commercial use in that's one thing. What we don't need is more dense residential added to the community when our schools are already vastly overcrowded. Might be more appealing with...
