New Woodburn Community School

WHAT NEW INSANITY IS THIS?

See the West Virginia Division of Highways (DOH) map of the planned signs for the Eastwood Mileground Roundabout (at previous post and below). APPROXIMATELY 70 DOH SIGNS ARE SLATED TO BE INSTALLED AT AND AROUND THE EASTWOOD ELEMENTARY MILEGROUND ROUNDABOUT AND NOT A SINGLE SIGN INDICATES THAT EASTWOOD ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IS LOCATED IN THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY. THERE IS NOT EVEN A PEDESTRIAN CROSSING SIGN. NOT ONE.

Let’s see, there are signs for Hampton Inn, and Hilton Garden Inn, and Euro-Suites Hotel.

There is a sign for Adopt A Highway Litter Control Program.

There is a 201st INF/FA Memorial Way highway sign.

There are at least 9 Yield signs.

There are at least 7 stop signs.

There are 4 signs for the Hospitals. (There are no signs for the sirens.)

There are 5 signs for Interstate 68.

There is a Begin Center Lane Only sign.

There is an End Center Lane Only sign.

There are 4 Divided Highway Signs.

There are 4 signs for the Roundabout.

There are 50 arrows on these signs.

There is a Speed Limit 50 sign.

There is a Speed Limit 40 sign.

There are 4 Speed Limit 25 signs.

There is a sign for the Stadium.

There is a Dead End sign.

There are many other signs.

But there is no sign for a school. Not one.

There is no SLOW CAUTION SCHOOL sign.

There is no SCHOOL CROSSING sign.

There is no SCHOOL SPEED LIMIT sign.

There is not even a PEDESTRIAN CROSSING sign. Nothing.

There are about 70 DOH signs and 50 arrows on those signs and there are zero signs for Eastwood Elementary there at the sole access and egress to the school.

Words fail.

And pictures are worth a thousand words?

The Eastwood Elementary Mileground roundabout is already a wreck.
