From Stafford County Government:
Did you know Ferry Farms neighborhood was the first subdivision in Stafford County? The first homes were built in the 1950s, and most were built in the 1960s. Understandably, the water pipes need an upgrade to bring the neighborhood’s water system up to 21st century standards. Stafford County is in the midst of a $10 million five-year project to renovate the aging system. It is a big project and will, at times, impact both residents of the area and those who drive through, particularly on Ferry Road. It can be frustrating to co-exist with a project of this magnitude, but we ask residents to pardon our dust as we work to make this much-needed improvement.
