I could not agree more. Shamarie stated it well, I travel everyday across our beautiful Commonwealth, although I do have GPS and a map, I do rely more on road signs than modern technolgy. GPS is wonderful, but it is about once a week you will find yourself driving across the middle of a field according to your GPS. Without the standard road signs a person has to waste additional time asking for directions (if they will) when there could have been a sign posted and you could have been well on your way. -Cindi Alexander

OK, if they don't cost too much, you just go ahead and pay for it. I do agree that signs on roads that you are currently on should have good signage and not make you circle the Columbia Square, before telling you to exit square on a road you went by earlier, such as the aforementioned KY 80. -Mabel Rowan

Mable: What a special lady. Some of my fondest memories as a child occurred when I would go to church and see Norris and Mrs. Mable. Such such a great example of two special people who loved each other so very much. Their life would be a perfect example for any married couple. My prayers are with the family now. Stephen Collins

If someone has never been to Columbia before why should they know where to go to find KY 80?

It helps to have signs for those who are traveling. Even some of the people who live here could use some help some times going around the square.

If you want to have tourists here, help them navigate through the Square.

Surely signs don't cost that much.M.E. Lewis

Now that I travel everyday my feelings on this are real simple - We need a sign!I find my self some place new every week and sometimes twice a week I can't tell you how many times I would be lost without signs, even though I have a map and mapquest directions with me.

I do not have a GPS so I depend on signs to find my way around the state every day now.

My vote: Put up a sign! For those who are passing through it would be a great thing. For those of us who live here we know where KY East 80 is and where it goes but for many in the same shoes as I find myself in these days, it will help them find their way and get them where they are going in a more timely manner end of story. - Shamarie Claiborne
