Could you please survey the other departments and ask if they could share information about where they purchase Highway cones, and approximately what was paid for them.  Arnold Vecchione, Director,   Town of Johnston DPW



I purchased 20 cones, 28 inches with two bands from Kim at GT safety in July for $326.00, or $16.30 ea.   Chuck Smith, Highway Supervisor, Coventry DPW

Traffic Signs & Safety Bristol  $ 14.50    Standard 28” cone with reflective stripes purchased 2 years ago. Purchased 100 cones.  Rick Lambert, Woonsocket

The last time NK purchased safety cones, they were purchased from The Traffic Safety Store (www.trafficsafetystore.com ); in 2010 for 50 cones as described below, the cost was $19.45 per cone.  The price varies by the choices you make when choosing the cone you wish to purchase.  Five years later, the per cone cost for 50 has risen to $22.80.  Price shown below does not include Freight.  Highway was quite happy with the purchase.

We go through Traffic Signs and safety. The cost is $15 each and if you order a dozen or more, they will stamp it with your municipality’s name (i.e. NKDPW)
