Not much in the way of detail.
Probably left there by a photographer, after photographing the overpass.

There were a bunch in LA and some other major city as well. They just realized that the devices weren't bombs and didn't shut down.

A few years back someone put a home-made battery-powered illuminated sign of a cartoon character named Ignignokt on or under a bridge in Boston. The whole city came to a standstill because somebody thought it was a bomb.
