Nomination: Most signed cycle path

[Andrew_Culture]

I can't take credit for this as it popped up in the Google Group that Ipswich cyclists use, but could this path in Ipswich be the most overly signed cycle route ever?

Welcome to The Health And Safety Nation:

'I didn't see no signs guv'!



Probably, yes.

I dont actually see any problem with that - visually it is OTT - but I assume the bollards come off the shelf and are the appropriate ones for the situation

I just think it's fun!

I've stared really hard at this to try and figure out if it's photoshopped, and I can't spot anything. I know where this is in Ipswich so I might see if I can debunk this tonight.

If we aren't careful then we will end up being a bit like in Simpsons where Homer sets up a road safety campaign, and ends up with things like there being a warning sign that a warning sign will be coming up and so on.

I stopped off on my way home to see this for myself, and yup, someone at the bollard factory must be working on commission.

...and yet people still seemed surprised to see 'a bike on the pavement'
