The three new signs on the south side of Pines are a bit ambiguous. They imply that there is a restricted area, but the area is not defined. I hope people do not take it to mean that they must stand on the shoulder of the road, between the signs and the pavement. It will help if traffic cones are set up as was done last year, about 1/3 of the way down the grassy swale, to show the limits that observers may approach.

Better still, if some party might donate a few big orange water-filled barrels, and a plastic fence that could be strung along the edge of the shoulder of the road, this would separate the pedestrians from the roadway as well as from the eagles.

To do this, the City would still need to obtain approval from their own traffic engineers as well as FDOT, which has jurisdiction over the right-of-way.



The police were there briefly (down near the traffic light, but no one was standing on the south side of the road:
