Investigating
Hump Back Bridge Sign Damaged.
Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 6826891.
On the morning of the 5th December, 2024 this hump bridge sign was correctly installed and intact.
During the same day the hedge beside the sign was flail-mowed by tractor.
On the morning of the 6th December, 2024 the sign was battered and damaged, and dismounted from its pole. See attached photographs.
This is not an accusation. It is a series of three observations.

The sign has not been fixed, and now the old damaged one has disappeared too, leaving just a bare grey pole.
