Road planned at Galloway farms on west side
William Galloway plans a new road through his 400 acre Hummel Butterfield farm and fairy farm to connect Dart factory road with Hanna or Brick yard road. He owns two thirds of the needed right of way and aims to improve access to his properties. Old buildings on the Hummel Butterfield place are being torn down and large new structures may rise near the site. Men are blasting boulders from the dairy farm as part of development.
