Thanks to federal and local funds, signs throughout Putnam County and Cloverdale will both be examined in the near future.
The Putnam County Highway Department and Cloverdale recently received funds to audit signs in their respective areas.
Cloverdale received a $506 thousand award from the Indiana Department of Transportation, while the highway department received over $110 thousand in federal funds.
Cloverdale Town Manager Jason Hartman told the Cloverdale Town Council this month the funds will be used to purchase and install new regulatory signs, such as stop signs and speed limit signs. The project is set to commence next year.
As for the county funds, Putnam County Highway Engineer Jim Peck said the funds will be used to examine about 5,000 signs on roads across the county. Over an eight month period, the signs will be tested to see how reflective they are and the location will be documented as well.
