Steps for reviving a billboard telling traffic this is a private road?

Good for you. Guess you'll see if it makes an impact soon, finally getting warmer.

 

We are on a short dead end road. Only about 1000 ft. When we first moved here, this was a new road. It comes in from a main road, up a steep hill and down again to the end. I'm the only one on the last half of the road, and I am on the end, right hand side. For the first 10 or so years, cars would come speeding down the road esp. at night. It was a while before the town for a dead end sign at the roads entrance. We would hear brakes being slammed on all hours of the night. Have to say that most of that traffic and the sightseeing has stopped. There is a drop off at the end of the turn around.

 

A sign at the end of the turn around- " Proceed with caution" could be pretty funny the first few times. Just say'in.

 

If that doesn't work, I stand by my comment of sending www down there with the barrett.

Message delivered. Good job!

 

Looks so much brighter and you can really read the message. Now if people would actually read it!!!

 

Looks good. Yeah, I have to agree, I would have worded it much stronger, people seem to think traffic signs apply only to other people. Personally, I would add a life size plywood cutout of this dude next to the sign
I work for our city water utility and it just never ceases to amaze me how often people will drive around a "road closed" sign and then have the nerve to get pizzed at us when they get yelled at and made to back out (as in no turn around...back the freak out the way you came in!) We've even had people drive thru (over) "road closed" signs and crash into dirt piled in the middle of the road! It's pretty scary out there...we have problems almost every time we work in the street...I would hate to be a highway worker these days, at least we work mainly on 25-35 MPH (a few 45) streets...that 65 MPH (and up) on the highway would be a deal breaker for me!
