Afternoon News Update

Good afternoon. I’m James Brierton. Here’s the latest from the SmithtownRadio.com newsroom

Portions of Route 111 in Hauppauge will be closed for overnight repairs. The New York State Department on Transportation says it will shutdown parts of the roadway near Route 347 Sunday through Thursday mornings. The closures will allow crews to perform drainage work too disruptive to due during the high traffic value afternoons. The work is expected to take two weeks.

All good things must come to an end. After six and a half years of radio services for the greater-Smithtown area, SmithtownRadio.com will go off-air tonight at midnight. Our news services will continue through our Web site and social media.
