Wegmans grocery store will phase out all plastic bags by the end of the year.
The company hopes to shift all customers to reusable bags, in what it calls the “the best option to solve the environmental challenge of single-use grocery bags.”
Police believe speed was a factor in the crash involving three vehicles at 1:20 p.m. Wednesday, April 13, at Minnieville and Smoketown roads in Woodbridge.
According to a police press release, the driver of a 2009 Mercedes E350, driven by a 59-year-old man of Woodbridge, was traveling south on Minnieville Road approaching Smoketown Road when the driver disregarded a red traffic signal and proceeded into the intersection where the vehicle collided with a 2016 Toyota Highlander, driven by a 64-year-old woman of Woodbridge, that was traveling eastbound on Smoketown Road through the intersection.
