Arrow Boards Everywhere
It may be hard NOT to see arrow boards this summer. They are on almost every turnpike and highway, warning us that there is construction ahead or that we need to buckle up or we will get a ticket.
Arrow boards are typically used to warn oncoming traffic that there is something they should watch out for. Like mentioned above, it could be a reminder or it could be about construction, but I have even seen it about oncoming unfortunate weather.
Traffic Message Boards – what do they say?
Traffic message boards have a variety of messages that are displayed on them. Just when I was on the road a few days ago, I saw a message that said “5/11 – road work – mon-fri – 3am-7am”. The amount of messages that can be displayed are never ending, but in my experience they typically have to do with construction.
There have been times when I noticed it mentioned that traffic was ahead, or that the weather is expected to get worse, or the road is icy, etc. The bottom line is, no matter what the message is, you should always pay attention to the message boards.
