For how long will they stay up
Driving toward Blakehurst this morning I noticed something different.
The first sign of change was at Box rd and the Highway
From this
To this
The clearway sign at the Gymea vet had gone from this
to a much better this. So much better
This clearway sign opposite Southgate has been straightened twice
The first time I took photo of this sign was on 23 March 016
and it had been "adjusted" (was pushed up) as shown in this photo taken on 3 November 2016
then.........
on the 3 Jan 017 less than 2 months later, it was back to it's old self.
and 4 weeks later its been again re-adjusted again, this time with a little help from a extra bolt
under the bracket, just to make sure
So an extra bolt was added under the bracket to hold it up.
and even with the extra supporting bolt this, sign now on the
18/4/2018
looks like this
How much has this cost
for this one sign in two years,
and how many thousands of
new Hi- Vis clearway signs will
need the same costly
maintenance????
Well in the two years or so since they changed to Hi -Vis this sign has been re-adjusted twice
The bracket was designed to do the job by itself with one bolt, without the extra help.
Could there be something wrong with the design?
In August 2015 the RMS put up new HI-VIS yellow clearway signs between Blakehurst and Sutherland
It wasn't long before they started to go off the horizontal (droopy)
November 7 2015 only three months after installation, I first wrote about droopy signs on this page,
http://www.schoolzonesanta.com/index.php/rms-perfection
including this photo of one,`
All signs should have two bolts, and
no bracket, but what would I know
I'm a carpet-layer.
How much taxpayers money is
wasted re-doing this simple
job???
To see more of this unnecessary nonsense,
at least it should have been,
