Danger Traffic Signal Cable Sign – Service Disruption Risk, Call 811 Before You Dig, 8x12 Rust-Resistant Aluminum Underground Utility Safety Sign by CGAP Safety

Traffic signal cable is not “just another buried line.” When it gets hit, you can create an instant intersection problem: lights go dark or drop into flash mode, traffic backs up, crews get forced into emergency work, and the public risk profile escalates immediately. The CGAP Safety “DANGER – Traffic Signal Cable – Service Disruption Risk – Call 811 Before You Dig” sign is designed to help prevent accidental strikes by making buried traffic control infrastructure obvious before excavation begins. The bold DANGER header and large-format wording are built for fast recognition in roadside environments where heavy equipment, tight schedules, and distracted foot traffic make mistakes more likely. This sign is especially useful in the exact places signal cable gets damaged: roadside trenching, directional boring, utility repairs, drainage and curb work, post or sign installation, fencing, landscaping, and any project that puts steel in the ground near an intersection or signalized corridor. The “Call 811 Before You Dig” instruction reinforces locate-before-you-dig coordination and helps crews pause before turning a routine job into an outage and a response event. This 8 x 12 inch sign is manufactured from rust-resistant aluminum for long-term performance in outdoor conditions. The rigid construction outlasts thin plastic markers and temporary notices that fade, crack, or disappear after weather exposure, mowing, or general right-of-way abuse. Use this sign as part of your damage-prevention program to reduce avoidable strikes, limit service disruptions, and keep traffic signal systems operating safely and reliably. Important: This product is a warning sign only and does not replace required locating, permits, safe digging procedures, or utility-owner requirements. Always contact 811 and follow applicable standards and site policies before excavation. CGAP Safety is an American safety sign manufacturer dedicated to straightforward, durable signage that helps organizations close the gap between written policy and what actually happens in the field.
