New road layout signs STILL there approaching 6 years

Reported via mobile in the Abandoned road signs or cones after works category anonymously at 18:22, Saturday 11 January 2025

Sent to North Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 6966513.

Reported previously and immediately closed by the council saying "waiting for appropriate road space and a contractor to complete the job". This is unacceptable. There was "road space" to erect the signs so what has changed that there isn't space to remove them? This is roadside clutter and amounts to visual pollution.Temporary signs are legally to be removed after 3 MONTHS. It is incumbent on the council to MAKE SURE developers do their jobs properly. Local elections coming I suggest you do so.
