Here are some faded signs on a BGS.

Practically unreadable now.

That's Google Maps.  Signs could have been replaced by now.

Yes they could have, it makes me ask why are they still there?

Cairo, IL: (first pic is from 2014, second is 2019)


Newest Street View on this one is from 2014 but it's probably still there:

On the other hand, there were two yellow yield signs still hanging around in Cairo in 2020.

My guess is that they're waiting to replace the entire thing after construction has completed at I-95 and I-595:

I saw them both poking around Street View for that kind of thing, as well as a pre-1971 Do Not Enter sign (only a block away from the yield sign I posted) that hasn't faded a bit. Is there a thread for very old signs still in use? :D
