Today marks 19 years since William McDaniels Sr. answered his final alarm in the Line of Duty on September 15, 2007.

Nineteen years may have passed, but time does not erase the memories or lessen the impact of a life dedicated to serving others. His commitment to the fire service, his community, and those around him continues to live on through everyone who knew him and carries his memory forward.

๐Ÿšจ ROAD CLOSURE โ€“ ROUTE 239 ๐Ÿšจ

As of 11:30 AM on Friday, September 4, 2026, Route 239 is once again CLOSED between Pond Hill Mountain Road and Ruckle Hill Road due to downed power and communication lines.

๐Ÿšง Detours are in place. Please use an alternate route and DO NOT go around or move any road-closed signs or barricades.

Please use caution in the area and allow crews room to work safely.

We will provide updates as conditions change.

Route 239 between Ruckle Hill Road and Smith Mountain Road is currently closed due to a vehicle accident involving a utility pole, with wires down across the roadway.

Emergency crews remain on scene along with the utility company. The roadway will remain closed until the hazards have been removed and it is determined safe for travel.

A Reminder About Road Closures and Responder Safety

During todayโ€™s Route 239 closure, numerous motorists ignored ROAD CLOSED signs and cones and attempted to drive through the scene.

Road closures are inconvenient, but these signs are not suggestions. They are there to protect the public, emergency responders, and utility crews working in dangerous conditions.

Driving around cones or barricades puts your safety and our respondersโ€™ safety at risk and can distract crews from the emergency they are handling.

If the road is closed, turn around and use an alternate route.

A few extra minutes of inconvenience is not worth putting someoneโ€™s life at risk.

Please respect road closures and help keep everyone safe.
