New Signs for Bronx Parkways

    Those big old huge hanging arm signs that told you of the upcoming exits on Bronx parkways are coming down as you see in the photo above. In the lower right hand corner you can see the new much smaller street level posted sign for this exit, Mosholu Parkway.

   The New York State Department of Transportation is taking down those old illuminated signs that hung over the parkways to put up new smaller street level reflective signs, which are non illuminated at a savings of millions of dollars in electricity costs. Below are a few more photos of this sign as it is taken down, 

  Here you can see that the sign portion is off with the arm pole awaiting to be taken down.

 
  Another photo as workers start to dismantle the sign. The arm pole would be next.
