All roads lead to the Greens Farms railroad station.
And — with demand for at-home testing high — drivers lined up early for this afternoon’s distribution of the hard-to-come-by kits.
Town officials announced late this morning that supplies had just arrived. By 1:30 p.m., cars were backed up on Greens Farms Road all the way to the Sherwood Island connector. Soon, the line stretched all the way back to South Compo.
Similarly long lines were reported the other direction on Greens Farms Road, and on adjacent streets like Beachside Avenue, Morningside Drive and Turkey Hill.
With little to do but wait, a number of drivers sent photos to “06880.” Here are a few:
