UPDATE: Those 'Call Before You Dig' Street Stencils In Momauguin

EAST HAVEN, CT —On streets in Momauguin, cryptic stenciled messages had some scratching their heads. What is this?

East Haven police explained in a Facebook post.

"By now, you may have seen these stenciled notices popping up in Momauguin. CBYD stands for Call Before You Dig. These signs are popping up on your streets because permit parking signs will be installed in or around these areas. Prior to installing these signs, we have to make sure there are no utility hazards underground. Please bear with us while we work through this process. As always, thank you all so much."

East Haven police shared an update Friday:

We are another step closer to bringing Permit Parking to our beach area!

Signs reading: Permit Parking Only May 15th -Oct. 15th 7AM -9PM are being installed throughout our beach area neighborhoods. The following streets will begin to see these signs (covered) popping up. Some signs are forced to be installed on poles while others will be mounted on sign posts. Please bear with us as this program develops.

More information, including mailers and “how to register” tutorials will be coming before the program goes live!
