My problem, trying to save taxpayers $ by discouraging thieves.



Our guardrails have reflectors. The State is implementing new reflectors
going up on their routes. The workers are putting up reflectors mounted
on
the blocks or posts for the guardrail. Problem is, the reflectors are
mounted on aluminum! Ok, someone at the top should've seen this one
coming,
especially with the economy being the way it is.



I haven't followed this thread too closely, but I'm confused. How big
are these things, anyway? How much aluminum are we talking about? An
ounce or two? I don't quite see why they're being stolen.


4" x 8" x 1/8" thick. A box of 125 weighs slightly over 80 lbs with
reflective tape. Don't know how much they weigh without the tape.

One can only suspect why they're being stolen.
