Design your own sign

[tommer9]

What gets me is that most people don't even slow down when they drive past you, no matter how many signs or cones you put out, or how restricted the road is when your working on it with truck, chipper etc.

 

Haha- that'll NEVER change- except it could get worse......wait till they start driving over the cones and hurling abuse at you as they drive past coz you have inconvenienced them for nearly a whole 30secs of their petty lives.....

We have a 3 signs on the door of the shop. "Reception", "Entrance" and "Turn handle and push door", and they still open and walk in the one that says "staff only". That's the point at which we give them a broom and tell them to sweep the workshop.

Last week i had closed 2 roads around 2 sides of a park cause we were straigthfelling big birches onto one of the roads. For safety we had closed the adjoining road to direct the traffic around the park and put up proper signage and blocked half the road with a metal "gate" and cones on the other side (for easy access for emergency services if needed) 13een cars used the lawn and the footpath to pass the closure i stopped and yelled at four of them! They all said that i was using inadequate signage and not proper closure!?!?

 

A sign with

"WARNING

Mines ahead

 

would have been useful!

Dunno if Steve has a pic of it, but a chap we worked for had a very large sign, with DANGER TREE CUTTING emblazoned upon it, it had more effect than any regular road working signs and people could never make the excuse that they didnt see it!
