Roadguy’s colleague Emma Jaye often commutes on foot, and she’s once again utilized the camera on her phone to prove that you do indeed see more when you walk. For one thing, there’s this sign on the Stone Arch Bridge:

Translation: Bridge to be mob scene during fireworks.

This more curious sign is on a sidewalk a few blocks away:

Something odd I noticed on the way home from work: a fence around a long piece of pipe with a number to call if the red light was on. Luckily, it wasn’t on.

This seems like a rather unusual request to make of passersby. (”Pull over, honey, and grab the phone — the red light is on!”) I haven’t called the number yet — I thought I’d first see whether any of the infrastructure geeks in our studio audience know what this is about. If so, please make use of the comments below.
