Said to have cost £100,000, Walsall's new information signs seem to be currently live - at least this one is. Have we really spent so much to inform drivers of a legal requirement? 9:49am, Thursday, 12th May 2011.
I’m a bit puzzled at the purpose of these new signs erected on the main routes into Walsall. Similar ones in Birmingham were installed a decade ago, and hardly ever worked. This one seems cunningly placed to inform drivers there’s a problem when they’re trapped in a queue it’s too late to get out of… surely in these cash strapped times there are better uses for that kind of money.
