street sign
Pole-mounted traffic indicator
A street sign is a posted marker displaying the name of a road or intersection, typically mounted on a pole at corners.
Street signs help drivers and pedestrians navigate: I couldn't find the house because the street sign was missing.
The term also covers regulatory signs like speed limits and stop signs, though these are more precisely called traffic signs.
