01

Streets & Infrastructure

Maintain what matters.

André supports responsible maintenance and improvement of Quantico's streets, sidewalks, drainage, lighting, water, wastewater systems and public spaces.

Existing infrastructure work by the Town should be acknowledged accurately, and future work should be visible to residents from start to finish.

Proposed Tool

Quantico Infrastructure Tracker

A proposed public online dashboard showing:

  • — Major projects
  • — Estimated timelines
  • — Funding sources
  • — Current status
  • — Completed work

02

Water Reliability

Clear information when it matters.

Recent water-system disruptions affecting the Quantico area demonstrated the importance of reliable infrastructure and rapid public communication.

In September 2026, a loss of water pressure affecting Marine Corps Base Quantico's Mainside system resulted in a boil-water advisory. The advisory was later lifted after laboratory testing.

André supports clear public procedures for communicating water disruptions, boil advisories, restoration timelines, testing results and infrastructure work.

Proposed Tool

Water & Utilities Status

A proposed page that would link to current official notices from the responsible authorities. The campaign does not independently publish water-safety determinations.

Official advisories and safety determinations come from the responsible utility and public-health authorities.

Town + Base Cooperation

Two communities. Shared realities.

The Town of Quantico has an unusually close relationship with Marine Corps Base Quantico.

André supports regular and professional communication concerning town access, Fuller Road, visitors, deliveries, local business access, special events, utilities, emergencies, public safety and transportation.

The goal is to strengthen and maintain communication that already exists between the Town and the installation.

This campaign is not affiliated with, and is not endorsed by, the U.S. Marine Corps, Marine Corps Base Quantico or the Department of Defense.
