Street Signs

Today I was on my way home from school and I noticed the signs leading into the residential streets were different colors. I know on the highways the different colors signify the type of information found on the signs but these were residential streets. Some were a dark blue with white writing, others were a lighter blue (that did not apear to be from fading) and some were green. If anyone can give me insight as to why there are different color signs I would love to hear it!

  1. Most road signs are green, and I don't know why. Street indicator signs can vary in color and design but are usually green, though I've seen blue and white signs before. Perhaps green reflects "go" or natural feelings, or perhaps it's just easy to see. Blue also works, though I usually associate it with newer neighborhoods. I always loved looking at street signs when I was a kid.
