[Image taken 1.2.23] Skeldergate, York. Two ghost signs. One obstructing the pavement. One in the kerb further restricting the width of an already narrow route. Are they part of the Northern Gas Networks works signage? (See: #190584 and links.)
And look at the state of the tarmac. Yet Skeldergate is used by 1000s (I/m guessing) of cyclists every day. The appalling surfaces around the city might go some way to explaining the huge fall in cycle use in York. Report in YorkMix:
