ArroWorst: Beaverton's Finest?

ArroWorst

It seems Portland and the surrounding area go through spells of constant road construction. How can something be a spell and ongoing? Well, it is always happening, but there are certain times when it seems the entire city has an impediment. Now is one of those times, especially for the west side and Beaverton. Ever since we moved to this area over three years ago, there has been nonstop construction. It's craziness.

Of course all this roadwork has the awful drawback of increased traffic. Well, as annoying as this is, at least I can say this town has one thing to gain: Horrible Arrows. I think the idea is to make such ludicrous shaped directional symbols on the ground as to cause anyone to laugh hysterically. So people forget about the junk traffic they are locked up in. So you can appreciate the arrows in all their glorious detail and splendor, I created an album dedicated to ArroWorst. My question is: Are these permanent? It looks like that thick, durable, reflective traffic striping. I don't know why they would lay something down just to tear it up later, so this must be the new style.
