Signage pole left by EWRA on Bletchley Road, Newton Longville
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5071961.
Pole left close to old Brickworks entrance (former EWRA Compound B6) with sign removed as the hazard ceased on this road at the end of March 2023. Impacts on parish council grass cutting on the verge, and may possibly encourage fly-posting.
One of several items of TM signage/equipment left by EWRA who have been saying since they vacated Compound B6 off Bletchley Road in early April that it will be removed but have failed to act (it was going to be April, then May, then July, then August, then September and now October). We are now outside the maximum 6 month period set in Chapter 4, the Department for Transport's Traffic Signs Manual paragraph 1.15.2 for the removal of temporary signage
