No political signs on state highway right-of-way STATEMENT OF INDEBTEDNESS Debt Outstanding M As Summarized Below Heppner I.O.O.F spends day cleaning Hardman Cemetery •Continued on the next page With Oregon’s pri mary and other local elec tions only a w eek aw ay the O regon D ep artm en t of Transportation reminds campaign supporters that it is illegal to place political or other signs on state highway right-of-w ay. Signs w ill be removed without notice and held at ODOT district maintenance offices for 30 days. Signs, advertisements and other items placed along the state highway right-of- way are a safety concern for motorists, ODOT workers and the people who may be stopping along the roadway to install or remove them. “There is a reason why it is illegal for signs or other messages to be placed along the highway right-of- way,” said ODOT Public Inform ation O fficer Tom Strandberg. “ For one thing, it’s not safe to be stopping along the highway to in stall or remove them. Those who are installing them are also putting others at risk because the signs can be a distraction for drivers.” Since ODOT crews have to rem ove illegally placed signs it also puts state workers at risk and takes time away from other tasks that need to be done to keep the roads safe. “We understand that people want to show support for their candidate or cause, but please be mindful o f the rules that help protect everyone’s safety,” Strand berg said. The width o f state highway right-of-way can vary considerably depend ing on the specific location. If you’re uncertain whether you are placing a sign on private property or highway right-of-w ay, check with your local ODOT district maintenance office. Temporary political signs are allowed on private property within view of state highways w ith the follow ing restrictions: * New signs are lim ited to 12 square feet. * No flashing or in termittent lights, animated or moving parts are allowed. * S igns m ust not imitate an official highway sign or device. * Signs are not al lowed in scenic corridors. For more informa tion regarding signs along highway right-of-way, con tact your local ODOT Dis trict Maintenance office at 541-276-1241.
