As you may have noticed, lights are being installed on West Bench Hill Road. Here is an image posted by RDOS Community Services Manager Mark Woods on Facebook. I assume from the strategic framing of the rainbow that he is happy with the lights.
I sent the following to the Board of Education Trustee for rural Penticton, Ginny Manning. The email is a follow-on to my previous comments on this issue:

Hi Ginny,
Just a heads-up: crews will be working to install the West Bench sign at the bottom on West Bench Hill Road. To work freely, they will have to remove all the signs that are currently spread across the highways right-of-way. Once the West Bench sign is constructed and the area around it is landscaped with natural vegetation we will likely take it upon ourselves to keep the area clear of signs (they are not supposed to be in the highways right-of-way in any case).
