Town Workers Remove 'Welcome' and 'Enter at Your Own Risk' Signs

Mysterious signs were gone by Tuesday afternoon.

At least we know one thing about those yellow signs that appeared on Christian Avenue on Monday: They were definitely not put there by the Town of Brookhaven.

"The signs were not legally placed in the right of way," acting highway supervisor John Cappella said in a statement to Patch.

By the early afternoon on Tuesday, the signs were gone, though the mystery remains: Who put them up?

The "Why?" also remains, though Patch readers and residents of Christian Avenue who brought the issue to our attention seemed to think it was due to the poor conditions of the road, which is marred in may places by pothoes and ruts.

Two sets of signs, which read "Welcome to Christian Avenue" and "Enter at Your Own Risk," appeared Monday at the corner of Christian Avenue and Hollow Road and at the corner of Christian Avenue and Bailey Hollow Road.

I agree..maybe that is one of the reasons road pavement safety lines and striping esp. in the 3VRead More area are virtually non existent!! VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION that leaves the TOWN OF BROOKHAVEN liable involving accidents and fatalities. I think the new T.O.B. highway super, (D. L.) should make this a priority!

So, essentially that first residential home is being written off as the price of doing business.Read More There goes that property value. Other than as a professional residence, who would want to live by a driveway for that traffic? As for the entrance Village Automotive, that will bring even more traffic to an already busy intersection nearby. 25A is impassable/impossible in that area for large chunks of the day now.

The rezoning is for the acres of undeveloped residential land across from Ann Maries Farm stand,Read More extending down to the wooded area on 25A. A one way entrance would be placed by Village Automotive and a one way exit would come out on N. Country Rd. adjacent to the first residential house.
