Sometimes ya just gotta wonder if National Grid and DPW Superintendent Rob Perry communicate at all. Or if Perry cares to communicate with National Grid at all.
Our electricity and natural gas supplier, headquartered in England (as in Europe!), recently had one of their many utility contractors install a few new utility poles along South 3rd Street. One of them, near Allen Street and where a pole did not already exist, was installed a few feet in front of three traffic signs on a pole trying to do their best to assist visitors entering Hudson. If Rob Perry decides that the location of the now obscured signs is no longer acceptable, how much will it cost the city to put them where they are able to be easily read by drivers? That is the point of signs, isn't it; that they should be easily read by everyone at all times, even in the dark? Or would Mr. Perry prefer drivers entering the city on 3rd Street to stop their vehicles in the street so that they can do their best to read the signs that National Grid has made practically impossible to notice while driving?
