Feds show no ‘Love’ for New York state roadway signs

ALBANY, N.Y. — The Federal Highway Administration isn’t showing any “Love” for some tourism signs along New York state highways.

Officials with the FHA and the New York state Department of Transportation will meet next month to discuss the removal of more than 500 “I Love NY” signs from roadways.

Highway Administrator Gregory Nadeau will meet with DOT Commissioner Matt Driscoll at the FHA’s Washington office sometime in December to formulate a plan for taking down the signs.

The FHA has threatened to cut nearly $1 billion in federal funding to the state if the signs aren’t removed.
