Starting Monday November 4, 2024, T. Miozzi Paving will begin paving Tifft Road and Laurel Lane.  Grange Road and Rocky Hill Rd. will follow these two roads and all four roads should be completed by the end of the week. The work will be done between 7:00 A.M. and 4:00 P.M.

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 and local (residents) traffic.

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. They will be working on Tuesday (Election Day). If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact the North Smithfield Highway Division at 767-2200 Extension 348.
 
Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado says she'll be back in her country soon. Machado left Venezuela last month to accept the Nobel Peace Prize and hasn't yet returned. Now that the U.S. has forcibly removed president Nicolas Maduro in a military operation, Machado told Fox News on Monday that she'll be back to help dismantle what she called the criminal structures of the Maduro government.        President Trump says Republicans will "break records" in this year's midterm elections. He addressed the annual GOP retreat Tuesday at the newly renamed Trump Kennedy Center. This year will be critical for Republicans in the House as they look to keep their slim margin.        Today marks the fifth-year anniversary of the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol. A large group of Trump supporters overwhelmed police and swarmed the Capitol as lawmakers worked to certify the results of the 2020 presidential election. Trump claimed Biden and his supporters "stole" the election, and told his audience gathered at the Ellipse that day, "We fight like hell. And if you don't fight like hell, you're not going to have a country anymore."        Minnesota Governor Tim Walz says he has no plans to resign before the end of his term. A day after announcing he's ending his bid for a third term, Walz said, "I'm not going anywhere" and added "over my dead body will that happen." Walz has come under scrutiny over allegations of fraud involving Somali daycares.        Los Angeles Fire Department Chief Jaime [[ HI-may ]] Moore is commenting on lessons learned one year after the deadly Palisades Fire. Moore says there were significant shortcomings in the department's preparation and response to the fire. He says those were leadership and management issues and not the fault of firefighters.        The eldest son of former President Ronald Reagan has died. According to a statement from his family, Michael Reagan passed away in Los Angeles Sunday at the age of 80. Reagan was one of five children of the former President.
