New Access Road Open

When you leave Westminster, please consider using the new access road if you drive north on Rt. 202. This newly constructed road connects West Pleasant Grove Road with the driveway at Stetson Middle School, enabling you to turn left at the traffic light. This is a safer route than making a U-turn at the intersection at Rt. 926. Thank you!
