Yea, the sign post is made from cement. There are a few other cement posts in that town as well, along with an old embossed Speed Limit 30 sign.
They/Them for me, please.

Classic bridge signs in Aintree, England.

Unfortunately, the road was later closed so the bridge could be repaired! They replaced the signs too! :Awww:

This 4 way beacon in Arbuckle, California has some interesting signals. It looks as if the signals were reused, then retrofitted with some unknown LED's.

Okay, take car, crash through fence, and drive through road that slowly narrows by brackets.
