TIME TO REPLACE DAMAGED BRIGG SIGN


This road sign in Brigg town centre has clearly been damaged.
It's on Bigby Road, near the zebra crossing, and advises drivers that they are approaching Demeter School.
Brigg Blog recently highlighted the fact that there's a similar 'school ahead' sign in good nick on Glebe Road - still there many years after Brigg Primary relocated to Atherton Way.
We said it was time North Lincolnshire Council removed the Glebe Road sign and suggested it might be re-used elsewhere in the district.
This morning we spotted the damaged sign on Bigby Road and put two and two together!
The concrete water hydrant indicating 'H' post is also badly cracked.
It points the way to Anglian Water's water, to be used by Humberside Fire & Rescue Service (if there's a fire nearby) but is at the side of the highway for which the council is the authority.
So who's responsible for putting in a replacement post?
