Quick response by City on stolen stop sign

Last weekend, a stop sign disappeared from the corner of Hearst and Edna. Notified by neighbors, the Dept of Public Works replaced the sign on this busy school corner promptly on Monday morning.

But they forgot the “One-Way” sign on top, to prevent cars turning the wrong way into a narrow section of Edna. The problem was addressed quickly once again, early on Tuesday morning.

Thank you Department of Public Works — and the SF311 system that makes it easy to submit reports and get quick action on safety problems.
