Governor Tim Kaine's annoucement

URW had a presence at the Governor's annoucement of the Robertson bridge construction. Rep. Tom Perriello spoke as well, and the event was also attended by Rep. Don Merricks, and Rep. Danny Marshall. Pittsylvania County Administrator Dan Sleeper, along with Linda Green, President of the Dan River Business Development Center and Jeremy Stratton, Economic Development Director for the City of Danville were also at this wonderful announcement. The City of Danville has received stimulus money to construct a 4-lane bridge at the Robertson Bridge site. This will increase the economic development potential for the city - which is a good thing not only for URW, but for the entire community. Right now 20,000+ vehicles use the bridge everyday, and this is expected to increase rapidly in the coming years - so congratulations from URW to the City and community of Danville!
