A quick puzzle done at your desk or just sighting it in the

The Story (Because what's a puzzle without a story?)
This is a story of a hapless driver. This poor soul was speeding
westbound on Route 125 one morning when an Andover Police officer
clocked him going over the speed limit. Fortunately, perhaps, the
driver made it to the city line before the Andover officer could
catch up. Unfortunately, that officer radioed ahead to Wilmington
and there was a patrol car just past the city line waiting for the
driver.
The driver had just a little bit of luck on his side because on
that stretch of Route 125 Andover and Wilmington do not border each
other. There is a 508 foot stretch of North Reading. So exactly
halfway between the two towns he stopped. Since neither the Andover
nor Wilmington officer could cross the city lines into North
Reading, the hapless driver was able to stop and hide a
cache.
To Find The Cache
Take a close look at the two sign posts and figure out the exact
cords for each. Calculate a direct line between the two. Find the
midpoint of that line and there you will find the cache.
Good luck and good caching,
Loch Cache and the Hapless Driver
