• Farmington Roadway To Close For 2 Days For Roadwork (patch.com) — Farmington drivers are being warned that Highwood Road will be closed to through traffic today and Friday during daytime hours for pavement milling work. The town explains that milling removes damaged asphalt and prepares the road for resurfacing, improving cracks and ruts while allowing the material to be recycled. Motorists are urged to use alternate routes while the project is underway.
