Extreme deterioration of sign posts immediate hazard to safety
Reported via Android in the Road signage category anonymously at 10:29, Thu 30 October 2025
Sent to Bristol City Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8355733.
I reported this issue earlier in the year under fix my street ref:7612948. It was passed to another department who closed it down. The deterioration has increased dramatically with massive holes appearing on both of the poles and also at their bases. It poses an immediate hazard to health and safety of both pedestrians and road users. Please send someone out to inspect it as soon as possible. It is literally an accident waiting to happen.
Please note there is also early stage rust and degradation on the sign on the opposite side of the carriageway as well but not yet as bad as this one.
