[edit] Bad sign! No doughnut!

As the picture shows, 369 has recently had some signage pop up. This is at both ends, and in all cases was erected by the contractors, who obviously followed the letter of the contract - 369 being the maintaince designation for this stretch of road - and not their Mk.1 eyeballs (it's US 319, guys!).

Southern end: the sign in the picture on Shadeville Highway (Wakulla CR 61 westbound. Triply bad: not only should that be a US 319 shield, but 369 only goes north - right - so no-go on the double arrow, and there's the annoying practice of combining the "JCT" and "arrow" signs...

Northern end: Worse. SR 61 splits off here, and the intersection is now set up so that 61 SB is an "exit ramp" from the left of 319 SB, then intersects 319 NB at a traffic light. (Oh, BTW, this was advertised pre-construction as a "flyover". :rolls eyes:) At the light is a "FL 369 (left arrow)" trailblazer assembly. Which (aside from that 369 is supposed to be "secret") I suppose is techincally correct, but 369 terminates ~1/4 mi north where 61 NB merges in...

And there are "NORTH FL 369" reassurance signs on each side of NB 319 about 3/8 mile south of this particular junction (just north of where the road currently becomes four-lanes).
