Does anyone know what the 'bench-like' things are that have popped up along 30-a?????? Surely they aren't benches.......so what?? Curious....?:idontno:
 
Re: What are these things beside the road?

You mean the board resting on two pipes, about 6 inches off the ground, around Seaside and WC?

supposed to bring continuity to 30A, blending all the communities. ha, ha, ha.
 
Re: What are these things beside the road?

....but how do they hold up in hurricane force winds?


.

I never did finish that engineering degree... but, I would assume that the two 6' long sections of 4" PVC embedded in the ground will probably stay put. However, the connection point with the regular pine 2" x 6" and the Sign will most likely fail; causing the Sign to become just another piece of wind borne debris during the next direct Hurricane.
 
Re: What are these things beside the road?

They mentioned placing signs at each crossing of the Timpoochie Trail, aka the multi-use trail. That could be a lot of signs and obstacles blocking views.
 
Re: What are these things beside the road?

Have they said what color they will change the signs to next year?
 
Re: What are these things beside the road?

They are the bases for the new signs - they have a frame of the same color blue metal pipes bolted to the bases.

Liked the "old" signs much better. These look like subway signs or something.
 
Re: What are these things beside the road?

This is a TDC project approved many months ago and is separate from the multi-use path wayfinding project that was recently approved. I think you will find these signs are attractive and they will identify communities along 30A. The set backs are to be in line with the Florida Green book per WC.
