The large Barrier Beach sign located at the beginning of State Beach in Oak Bluffs had degraded to the point of being unreadable. In 2017 a new sign was designed, fabricated and installed by the development team of  Steve Zablotney design, WHOI Sea Grant Program, FOS and Dukes County.

 

In 2020, FOS and Dukes County collaborated to develop and install educational signs at  Little Bridge and Big Bridge. FOS proposed and received a grant from the Edey Foundation to fund the signs. Dukes County provided  additional funds for more extensive redesign and installation. The same FOS-led development team who developed the Barrier Beach sign worked on this project. 

 

FOS has ongoing projects working with the County to develop and install new informational signs for the beaches and dunes on both sides of Beach Road. For example, Beach Regulation signs for each pathway and the main entrances to State Beach have been installed in Edgartown and Oak Bluffs.
