MANASSAS — It’s a summer ritual in Downtown Manassas: replacing the bricks in the crosswalks in some of the city’s busiest intersections.
Heavily-trafficked Route 28 runs right through the heart of downtown, where more than 20,000 cars per day travel the street, according to daily traffic counts from the Virginia Department of Transportation.
This year, city public works crews are out once again digging up the brick, but they're putting something in its place that hasn’t been there before.
“The bricks are being replaced with stamped asphalt that is more resilient and more able to take traffic,” stated city spokeswoman Patty Prince in an email.
