CONWAY — Despite the windy fall weather, about 50 town officials, first responders and other well-wishers turned out for the groundbreaking ceremony for the addition and renovation of the Conway Police Station on Monday afternoon.

"We've been waiting almost four years for this, so as we stand here and we look at this site, I'm filled with a deep sense of gratitude and excitement," Conway Police Chief Chris Mattei said. "What is currently just an open ground is about to become a foundation for something truly transformative for our department and our entire community."
