STREET NAME SIGNS 101: RETROREFLECTIVE STREET NAME SIGNS

摘要

This is a redo of an article I did almost two years ago. Almost daily I get a phone call or email with questions on street name signs. I decided to repeat this article with a few minor edits. Hope it helps. I am starting this article off with an everyday occurrence. Somewhere in the US, an invitation is received for a social event. The hostess is called with a request for directions. Her response to the traveler is to enter the address 123 Orange St. into Google Maps. The traveler responds with, "I do not have a smart device. Can you please give me the directions." "Here goes...take exit 5 to left on Lime St. Go for about 5 miles and turn right onto Pineapple Ave. and make the first left onto Date St. 123 Orange St. is on the left 2 blocks."
