Smashed Sign & Missing Bollards

Two weeks ago I posted pictures of the ludicrous "repair" of the bollards on Middlewood Street, and asked "How long before a passing HGV sends the sign and bollard flying?"

Well, the answer is less than two weeks...

This was the site two weeks ago,



and this is the site today.



I found the smashed road sign around 50 metres further down the road and the bollard was nowhere to be seen.



How long before TfGM and the local councils come to realise that this sort of plastic rubbish is a waste of money?
