Turn left at the double arrow
On Foothill Boulevard just east of Towne Avenue in Claremont, some agency, rather than replace the faded sign pointing to the 10 Freeway, simply posted a nice new one several feet behind the old one. I guess sign removal must be done by a different agency.

Do we both live off of Towne?
[I don't, but I pass that intersection once or twice a week. -- DA]
At least we will be really sure the 10 is that way.
[Yes, they're really driving that point home. -- DA]
I know that Caltrans is responsible for all freeway signage, etc., but I can't help wonder if the People's Republic of Claremont has a hand in keeping the old one up. They are a very nostalgic group.
[Ha ha! -- DA]
Maybe the signs are for the backseat driver. "Turn left here! I SAID TURN LEFT HERE!"
