Bluffton's new crosswalk signs are now in place at Main Street and College Avenue.
"This is a great improvement for students who cross before and after school, and for all pedestrians who need to cross at this intersection," said Paula Scott, who has worked with village officials on this project.
"I've been talking with the Village of Bluffton and the Ohio Department of Transportation about creating more enhanced conspicuity so that the signs replicate the message of the in-street design originally recommended by ODOT," she said.
Adding: "It would be the icing on the cake to add yellow-green plaques reading STATE LAW and SCHOOL XING to emphasize the fact that drivers are required to stop for pedestrians."
