The Stafford Board of Supervisors’ recent decision to allow a massive DHL Distribution Center will add over 1,360new vehicle trips daily to our brand-new, curvy Courthouse Road Divergent Diamond interchange.
A significant amount of this traffic will be heavy trucks. And worse, our Board has awarded big tax incentives (aka your tax dollars) to DHL to make it happen.
