being friendly without being a public street

Could other groups describe what kind of signs have been put up around your
property or other structures or plants to create a clear boundary between
your property and public property and discourage your central  pathway from
becoming a public side-walk?

Wasatch Commons is getting new neighbors.  26 new homes are being built
across the street.  We were on a dead-end road with only one other house.
We will now have 26 new neighbors, and the dead-end road has been opened to
through traffic.  We are fairly urban and want to define our borders without
erecting a 10-foot fence around our place.  We have no fences around our 5
acres, which has not been a problem in  the past, but recently we have had 2
cars (one a pizza delivery person and another a police car) try to drive
down our central path!  We will probably construct a sign that says Wasatch
Commons.  Could other groups describe their signs and what makes them
attractive and yet effective.

Thanks,

Vicky
Wasatch Commons
