Lincoln
Street Superintendent Walt Landers told Lincoln Aldermen
Monday evening that work is nearing completion on
replacing the electric traffic lights downtown with stop
signs. He said the new stop signs are on black posts to
fit in with the street lamps and are a cantilever style
with the street name signs mounted at the top of the
pole and the traditional 'stop' sign below.
Landers said that the change is completed at the
intersections of Pulaski and Kickapoo Streets and
Pulaski and McLean Streets. The city is currently
working on the replacement project at Broadway and North
McLean Streets and will do the signage at Broadway and
North Kickapoo last.
He also reported that the street lights, which were
somewhat broken and would only flash red at the
intersections, were costing the city several dollars for
electricity. That will now be money saved in the future
with the new signage.
