I don't know why 1600 block of S. New, S. Ferguson and S. Weaver got speed limit signs, they are all one block long and go nowhere.<BR/><BR/>I guess we all just knew it and went slow because we know all the neighbors and didn't want to run over any of them.<BR/><BR/>Actually it was three trips, one for the 800 dig rite guy, one for the guys who put in the footing and one for the guys who put up the sign. I don't know what it cost.<BR/><BR/>I like garage art, but not city owned garage art.<BR/><BR/>The sign in the picture is the original sign, it hasn't been moved yet.<BR/><BR/>I like the children at play sign too. Most of us in the neighborhood have a good opinion of Public Works because they listen to us and seem to hear us.Busplungehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15330613997333646488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7192121651732249695.post-52021873570304287202008-07-10T19:27:00.000-05:002008-07-10T19:27:00.000-05:00Hey bus:This invites just a few questions.Is speed...Hey bus:<BR/><BR/>This invites just a few questions.<BR/><BR/>Is speeding such a huge problem on S. New that a speed limit sign needed to be installed? <BR/><BR/>Prior to the installation of this sign, how did anyone know the speed limit in the many years of existence of this street?<BR/><BR/>What did it cost to have the sign installer come out and move it? <BR/><BR/>Wouldn't it been alot cheaper to just take this down yourself and let it become garage art? <BR/><BR/>How can it be seen around the Bus and the "B" Nest?<BR/><BR/>Finally, with reference to the kids sign, I always enjoy the <BR/>"Slow Children at Play" the best.longrooffanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14153060657258308757noreply@blogger.com
