Strange NJ: What Do These Strange Blue Signs At the Jersey Shore Mean?

Jessica Woods

OCEAN CITY, NJ – As you come across the Ocean City Causeway or other areas of the Jersey Shore, you might be puzzled to see blue traffic signs with simple white question marks on them. But what do they mean?

It has been suggested that if you hit it, you might get a few coins to pop out. Of course, that’s a joke, but what are they? They’re found on bridges, near parkway exits and along the coast of the Jersey Shore and in other places of New Jersey.

After looking into it, we found the answer. It’s simply a sign telling motorists that some sort of informational kiosk, tourist center or informational tourism information is available ahead. These are placed on roads out side visitors centers and other tourist destinations that provide information to visiting travelers.


It’s kind of like the blue H signs that mean a hospital is nearby.
