A: Before you submit a new sign request, go to the Town website and type the road name into the Street Status search box to determine if the location is maintained by the Army Corps of Engineers, MassDOT, MassCoastal Railroad or the Town of Sandwich. New sign requests for Town roads submitted to the Department of Public Works using QAlert will be redirected to the Engineering Department. The Engineering Department will review the request to determine if a new signage is warranted. Decisions are based on the Federal Highway Administration and the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices regulations.
