Starting Monday October 28, 2024, T. Miozzi Paving will begin milling Tifft Road, Laurel Lane, Grange Road and Rocky Hill Rd. The work will be done between 7:00 A.M. and 4:00 P.M. The paving crews are approximately one and half weeks out from today.

 

To help expedite this work we respectfully request that you move all vehicles off these roads.   There will be limited access to this area for the entire time Miozzi is working on these roadways. The only traffic will be for emergencies.

We apologize for any inconvenience that this may create, but with your patience and cooperation we can get this work completed as quickly as possible. There will be flaggers assigned to this project.

 

Please note that this work could be cancelled without notice due to the weather or other unforeseen circumstances. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact the North Smithfield Highway Division at 767-2200 Extension 348.
