Has anyone ever noticed on the roads there are blue reflectors every once in a while, what are these used for?

If you are driving on the streets of Howe after dark and
notice a small blue reflector in the middle of the street, you can
be sure that a fire hydrant is directly across from the reflector.
Howe Scouts have been working for several months on a project
to install these reflectors to aid the fire deparment in locating
the nearest fire hydrant during the night time hours. The Scouts
will also be painting the hydrants with different colors (which
represent the hydrant's flow).

Those indicate a fire hydrant...Makes it easier for we firefighters to find 'em in the dark!
