A new highway sign made for exit 39 on Interstate 84 in Farmington is on the ground along the side of the highway and the state Department of Transportation will not be putting that one up because the name of the town is misspelled.
A viewer spotted the sign that says “Framington” rather than “Farmington” along the side of the highway and shared the photo.
Officials from the state Department of Transportation said they are replacing signs all over the state and an inspector noticed the misspelling, so the sign never went up.
The DOT did not produce the sign. They contract the service out and it was merely a mistake, Kevin Nursick, of the Connecticut DOT, said.
