At a point of time, we have all done long road journeys - via car, bus, train etc. I remember, in my childhood, going on a road journey would be a thrilling experience - watching people across the street, vehicles whooshing in opposite direction - noting down the names of the places, stopping every now and then for a cup of tea or breakfast/lunch/dinner, looking at the speedometer - one for speed and second for number of kilometers traveled from source. I know many of us would second that feeling, even now.
This is about one of the things that appear during those road journeys - an integral part of any road - milestones.
One thing in a milestone is the color code on the top crescent. Well, it does have a meaning and a representation.
Yellow strip on a milestone indicates that we are on a National Highway.
Green strip on a milestone indicates that we are on a State Highway.
Black, Blue or White strip on a milestone indicates we have entered in a big city or district.
Orange color on milestone indicates that we have entered in a village.
