Frightwood on sign and not Wrightwood
« on: Nov 04, 17, 04:46:28 PM »
Is there a number to call to get the F removed? It says Frightwood and back to a W on our entrance to Wrightwood sign
 With all our visitors coming soon, I think its something that needs to be corrected..anyone else notice this and want to get it fixed?

Knowing Caltrans it probably requires a permit to remove it  :)

Hopefully someone stops by and removes it. What is the nearest cross street?

Of course, they probably require a permit to put it there.  Is there a permit procedure for "unauthorized sign modifications?"

It's a shame that whoever made the change to the sign didn't take it down when the event was over. It must have cost taxpayers a pretty penny to send a maintenance tuck to fix the sign.

Caltrans responded back with this photo this morning:

Probably some of the same people that put up Yard Sale signs but fail to remove them.
