Reflective Address Sign Information

The blue reflective signs seen throughout the rural areas of the County that display the address house number are called reflective 9-1-1 signs. These signs are extremely helpful to emergency personnel when responding to an emergency situation where every second counts.

Why address numbers are posted at the beginning of driveways:

Emergency responders can only help you when they find your location. Having your address number visible provides easy identification of your location for responders who are not always exactly familiar with your area.

Every second counts during an emergency. Address numbers allow emergency responders to save critical time especially in reaching rural parts of Murray County.

Homes are often hidden from view at the beginning of the driveway. Areas of Murray County have continued development. Making it difficult to find new subdivisions and developments.
