Anyone else find half their work zone cones roosting three blocks away by 6 a.m., like they’ve got a union and better hours? Our public works crew has chased the Maple Ave resurfacing closure three nights straight — I’m this close to RFID-tagging cones; what do you use to keep a lane closure from migrating?
Before you go ‘RFID-tagging cones,’ swap the taper for delineator posts with 15 lb rubber collars and cone bars — mine stopped trying to Uber home after midnight. If wind’s the thief, sandbag the end units; a short run of low-profile temp curb for the first 50 ft also keeps the closure put.
Feels like vandals, not wind. Park a single water-filled drum at the taper nose and hide an AirTag under every fifth cone — the drum stops the midnight drag and you’ll find the ones that “walk by 6 a.m.” way faster than RFID.
