Bizzare - someone has taken the effort to climb a light column on refuge in middle of the village and obscure keep left with grey paint (they have also done the same to smaller sign on the , can't be seen in photo due to darkness). Seems more sociopathic than normal (maybe someone pissed off the refuge is there in first place, it discourages speeding through the village, or angry that the local Speedwatch have put up a camera nearby?)

@vfrmedia Keep left is also a political statement, no?

@dajb they might have thought the sign was too "woke" (also as it dared to make drivers obey traffic laws)

@dajb its the main street in the village, with 24/7 live traffic - the sign is several metres above ground, you would need a ladder and it looks like the paint used by workers to obscure redundant/misleading signs during roadbuilding schemes.

I'd even suspect a disgruntled employee from the big depot up the road which does this kind of stuff (which makes you wonder what *else* he is planning on sabotaging?)

"it looks like the paint used by workers to obscure redundant/misleading signs during roadbuilding schemes."

I was wondering if it might be as prep for temporary traffic lights closing one side of it during daylight hours?

@dajb

@InsertUser @dajb had a look on one.network and there doesn't seem to be anything shown for that area (also there is usually an advance warning sign put up before any of the work happens)

@vfrmedia
That's me out of innocuous suggestions then. Just someone being a 💩 then.
