Drivers in Martin County said they’re feeling a little annoyed about roadway reflectors on U.S. Highway 1 in Stuart.
“It’s almost like a beating,” said Dale Grant. “You hear it over and over.”
WPTV’s Tyler Hatfield went in search of answers over what’s driving the new pavement additions.
The reflectors along U.S. 1 in Stuart are in the shape of an arrow.
“It’s very irritating,” said Erika Kvapil from Martin County. “I know they’re pretty new, so a lot of people are stopping and they’re wondering what they’re running over at this point. They’re causing traffic, it’s just really irritating.”
For Dale Grant, it’s a safety reminder that comes at a cost.
“My apartment is right near here,” said Grant. “I hear that day and night and there’s no escaping it.”
WPTVDrivers like Lois Folino said there’s also added confusion.
“I just noticed them today,” said Folino. “I didn’t know what they meant, I wasn’t sure what to do with them?”
