The truck, with an attached trailer, stopped in the right travel lane while one worker was at the rear of the pick-up truck to set up a sign. According to officials, the workers from the truck were about to mow and landscape a property nearby before the passenger school bus struck the man. He died on the scene.
No students were on the school bus at the time, officials said.
The victim was identified as 53-year-old Eusebio Castro of Aldie, Va. Castro was wearing a reflective safety vest.
The 62-year-old driver of the pickup truck, who was removed from the vehicle, also was injured.
