A crew was out Friday paving Legacy Farms Road North, which is significant because it was part of the requirement before the road could be accepted by the town as a public way. That would allow school buses to travel along it and avoid the congestion and, residents say, unsafe conditions that currently exist with one school bus stop at the intersection with Frankland Road, a good distance away from most children’s homes.
