Fredericksburg Public Works staff has been actively preparing for the winter storm, applying nearly 3,000 gallons of brine solution to roads, bridges, and overpasses, with many treated at least twice. Crews have loaded salt and sand onto all available equipment and will patrol their routes starting at 8:00 p.m. Sunday.

Snow plowing will begin as soon as accumulation occurs, with priority given to main roads, including Route 1, Route 3, Fall Hill Avenue, Princess Anne Street, Caroline Street, and Lafayette Boulevard. Secondary streets will be addressed as conditions allow. Residents are urged to stay off the roads Sunday night and Monday to ensure crews and public safety personnel can operate without unnecessary obstacles.

Fredericksburg Regional Transit (FXBGO!) will operate on a 4-hour delay on Monday, January 6, due to inclement weather. Service may be further adjusted based on road conditions. Updates are available on the FXBGO! website or Facebook page.

Additionally, all City Government Offices and courts will be closed on Monday, January 6, due to the storm.
