New I-81 lane opening soon near Staunton

A third northbound lane of Interstate 81 in the Staunton area is scheduled to open the week of Nov. 9, according to the Virginia Department of Transportation. The new lane will run between exit 222 at Route 250 and exit 225 at Route 262. The opening is part of an ongoing project to widen I-81 in both directions near Staunton. Construction began in fall 2023 and is scheduled to be completed in summer 2027. The project also includes widening five bridges, four on I-81 South and one on I-81 North. Construction will continue after the third northbound lane opens. Remaining work includes bridge construction, paving, striping and installation of guardrails and signs. Drivers could encounter shoulder closures, changes in traffic patterns and overnight single-lane closures. The work-zone speed limit remains 60 mph in both directions. VDOT said construction schedules could change because of weather. The project is being completed under a $101 million design-build contract and is part of Virginia's I-81 Corridor Improvement Program. Other I-81 projects planned or underway in VDOT's Staunton District include truck-climbing lanes at Weyers Cave, scheduled for completion in late 2027; southbound widening near Strasburg, scheduled for completion in fall 2028; and widening near Harrisonburg,

Staunton, Waynesboro tax win opens door to major school renovations

Kristin Siegel spent much more time this election cycle promoting the 1% sales tax for school construction than she did on her own campaign for reelection to the Staunton School Board. "I have put in so many hours just getting the word out to the public," Siegel said. "I am so excited for our students and for our staff members who deserve to have safe, modern buildings." Money from the tax, which will apply to most goods but exempt food sales and hygiene items, can be used only for new construction or major renovation of public school facilities and related financing costs. The tax dollars cannot be used for school operating costs or salaries. The tax passed in Staunton with about 57% of the vote , passing in four of the five wards with only Ward 2 rejecting the proposal. It also passed in Waynesboro with about 63% of voters in favor. It passed in all four of Waynesboro's wards. 1% sales tax a 'big win for the city of Staunton' Siegel seemed more enthusiastic over the sales tax passing on Election Night in Staunton than with her own win where she received the most votes of all five candidates

Virginia War Memorial adds Staunton general's WWII papers to archive

The family of Brig. Gen. Morris Thompson Warner donated his personal wartime papers, correspondence and military records to the Virginia War Memorial in Richmond, preserving the story of a Staunton native who helped train and lead American infantry forces during World War II. The collection offers a firsthand account of Warner's military service and his connection to Staunton and the Shenandoah Valley. Warner began his 28 years of military service as a cadet at Pennsylvania State University, where he graduated as cadet commander of the corps. According to his family, he was federalized into the U.S. Army for deployment to Europe during World War I, but the war ended before he was stationed there. In 1922, Warner was assigned as training and plans officer for the 116th Infantry Regiment, a Virginia National Guard unit with historical ties to the Stonewall Brigade. A history of the regiment lists Warner as its training and plans officer beginning Aug. 10, 1922. He rose through the ranks while also building a small manufacturing company and participating in civic life in the Shenandoah Valley. As World War II intensified, then-Lt. Col. Warner took command of the 116th Infantry Regiment and oversaw the preparation of its
