Make Stop Signs More Visible

Here’s something that Philadelphia does – they put a big red reflective strip on their stop signs. This helps highlight the sign and possibly encourages more people to stop. More and more people are running through stop signs which is bad for pedestrians and is also against the law. Stop at stop signs!
Let’s get this simple fix happening in Multnomah County! Also, see the neat reflective grid device that Philadelphia installs on telephone poles to help car drivers from running into them. Share this page with PBOT if you like! 311@portlandoregon.gov
