Default Those green signs

Several years ago Alton completed a 911 related street naming and house numbering project. All streets public and private received green signs paid for by the Town and installed by the Highway Dept.

The sole purpose of installing the green signs at the beginning of private roads is to identify the road location for 911 related responding emergency vehicles. Every effort was made to physically locate the signs on public right of way just prior to the beginning of the private road.

The presence of the green sign at the beginning of a private road is in no way intended to speak to the existence or non-existence of any public right to pass.
