Twelve signs into our series, it’s interesting to note that no traffic sign has yet won unanimous support, or universal condemnation. Perhaps there are some of you who have voted in support of every sign, and some others who have always voted against? But if that’s the case, then there are also plenty of others who are voting in different directions, depending on the sign in question.
So, how will the verdict fall on this pair of signs: located at the cut-through lane near the old Methodist chapel, and leading down to the back of the school?
Firstly, is this a useful place for another school sign? Perhaps this depends on the number of children who use the cut-through lane. Is it a popular route?
Secondly, is there a danger that stray traffic might turn up this narrow lane, only to get stuck further up? This is certainly a problem near the top of Creamery Lane, as earlier comments have suggested – so is this sign doing a good job of preventing a similar situation elsewhere in the village, or is it merely stating the obvious?
