LAKE RIDGE, Va. — The Old Bridge Christmas Parade is this Saturday, and it marks one of the first holiday traditions of the year.
The event featuring Santa will begin at 10 a.m., with marchers traveling on Old Bridge Road from Lake Ridge Middle east to Smoketown Road.
The parade is expected to impact traffic on the popular commuter route. The Virginia Department of Transportation Permit Manager Art Klos sent out an email about the parade:
——
The Lake Ridge community will be holding its annual Santa’s Old Bridge Parade. The parade will begin in front of Lake Ridge Middle School near Mohican Drive, proceed west on Old Bridge Road, and end near Smoketown Road at the Old Bridge Festival Shopping Center. During the parade, west bound traffic will be shifted to the east bound lanes. This is the same route that has been used since 1997.
Traffic control during the parade will be provided by the Prince William County Police Department. Message boards will be placed on Old Bridge Road advising the public of the upcoming event.
——
Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, Prince William police, and OWL Volunteer Fire Department, and others are expected to participate in the parade.
The parade was brought back last year first time after a brief hiatus due to inclement weather and logistical problems.
