Mysterious Posts -- Case Solved

Last December, strange looking wood and iron posts started showing up all over the area:

Posts like these started showing up in numerous place in Alleghany County and Covington.
Later, some of them had stonework added, so it was clear they were going to be signs of some sort.

Finally, in April, the final result appeared -- most places.
This one is at the I-64 welcome center just east of the West Virginia - Virginia state line.
Still, the one that we passed every day on way in and out of Clifton Forge just stood there.

About two weeks later, this one was finally completed. It's on a pretty obscure road that looks a lot more passable on GPS than in real life.
Mystery solved. As I learned, this project goes back almost 5 years, but getting permission to put signs along road right-of-ways is a complicated matter!
