The wrong national speed limit sign is still lit up.
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6339712.
The speed limit was reduced to 50 mph two years ago, but the national speed limit signs are still there, and they are even lit up at night ! At least please disconnect these and stop wasting council electricity. Ideally take those signs away to avoid confusion. I know someone keeps trying to paint over the black stripe but it soon wears off. Lots of traffic is still doing 70mph along this road. Thanks.

The Street Lighting Team aim to repair all faulty lighting within 20 working days, however, there may be some circumstances that this time for repairs is be extended. For example, if it is an electricity supply fault, this will be passed to the local electricity network operator to attend and rectify as we cannot work on their network, in these cases we will update you to let you know it is an electricity supply fault.

Update
Buckinghamshire Highways operates two methods for safety defect identification; proactively by Highway Inspectors who identify safety defects in line with Buckinghamshire Councils' Highways Safety Inspection Policy and reactively by Local Area Technicians following reports from the public. On receipt of reports, our Highway Inspection team make an assessment, determine if works are required and if so, the appropriate response times and repair method. It is in these instances only the larger defects are repaired; those which meet the safety intervention levels as outlined in the Inspection Policy. Any remaining defects are monitored for deterioration and added to other programmes of work for repair when resources are available. We also monitor and inspect the quality of repairs aiming to ensure that any work is carried out to the best and most appropriate standard.Whilst priority defects will receive a repair within appropriate timescales as dictated by the above policy, more minor defects such as the defect you have reported may not be immediately scheduled for repair. An order for a repair remains in our system for when resource allows and we will continue to monitor the location for any further deterioration.
This report is now closed to updates from the public. You can make a new report in the same location.
