Upside Down 50mph Sign


How long should it take IDOT to repair a speed limit sign, when all they have to do is stop and put in a new bolt and nut?

This sign is on eastbound U.S. 14 between Ridgefield Road (West) and Lucas Road and has been like this for well over a month. Three weeks ago I emailed IDOT and the repair was put "on the list." How many times a day do IDOT trucks run up and down U.S. 14 between Woodstock and Crystal Lake? How many IDOT employees have seen it (or maybe they don't look at speed limit signs, like most other drivers)?

How many others have noticed it and reported it, perhaps even (erroneously) to McHenry County or to Crystal Lake? But those agencies should have relayed the request to IDOT.

What else in the world is upside-down?
