City Installs New Signage Along North Highland Avenue

By John Becker

Thanks to the efforts of VHCA Graffiti Task Force chair Laura Voisinet, city workers recently installed ten shiny new traffic signs along North Highland Avenue.

A new speed limit sign and new fluorescent signs warning motorists to look for pedestrians in the crosswalk replace ones that were damaged and plastered with stickers and graffiti.

Several mid-crosswalk pedestrian warning signs were also replaced or repaired, and signage was added alerting motorists to the possible presence of senior pedestrians.

“The new signage is the result of a fruitful exchange between our task force, the city of Atlanta’s graffiti task force, and the city’s public works department,” Voisinet said.

Voisinet encourages all residents to help keep the new signs looking good by removing any stickers that are applied, and contacting the task force at graffiti@vahi.org to report any tagging that needs to be removed.
