County of Sonoma OfficialsInaugurate Innovative Traffic Warning Sign

County of Sonoma Department of Transportation and Public Works officials along with representatives of District Four Supervisor and Chairman of the Board of Supervisors, James Gore, and representatives of District Five Supervisor, Lynda Hopkins, will be joined by Sebastopol artist Patrick Amiot and members of the public for a special gathering to inaugurate the new Laughlin Road Artistic Warning Sign on Wednesday, October 31 at 9 a.m. The new traffic control measure is the result of an innovative community-based partnership and follows a series of incidents of trucks getting stuck on the one lane bridge near the intersection with North Laughlin Road, causing damage to public property, forced road closures, and disturbing nearby residents.
