Sign Down

The stop sign at the south end of Rocky Point Road takes a beating. As vulnerable as unspent revenue during a session of the state legislature, it is planted in the asphalt at the Y-shaped intersection with Marine Drive. Most drivers stay well to the right of the sign as they pull forward for a clear look at cross traffic. However, last night or this morning it got nailed—again (see photo). There’s no word whether a motorist was cited for the knockout blow. By early this afternoon, a temporary sign, anchored with sandbags and flanked by orange traffic cones, took its place.
