Traffic control signs direct, inform, and prohibit vehicles, and warn them of possible danger. Flashing signs for school zones are traffic control signs, too.

This is the process for requesting a new sign or reporting a problem with a current sign. There is a different process for reporting a problem with a traffic light.

There are also different processes for requesting these common (non-traffic) signs:

To request a new four-way stop sign, write to the chief traffic engineer of the Department of Streets. The department will acknowledge your request and conduct a study.

To get a new flashing sign for a school zone, the school principal should contact the chief traffic engineer to request an application. Note that the Streets Department only installs flashing signs for public schools, and power to the signs must come from the school facility.

Department of Streets Room 980 Municipal Services Building 1401 John F. Kennedy Blvd. Philadelphia, PA 19102

To request a traffic sign (other than a new four-way stop or new flashing school zone sign) or to report a problem with an existing sign, complete this form.
