Someone at the council got a nice backhander ordering excess paint and assigning overtime to his workmates.
Wi Fi signal strength indicators in that area : – )
No droopy moustaches in this area?
Seriously don’t know, never seen this one. Another addition to the plethora of confusing unnecessary street signs and furniture.
Do they lead to a hazard? Distance safely markers for cyclists?
That’s parking for bumper cars.
Grid positioning for mobility scooters.
They are not evenly spaced, are they?
Not that that helps…
Pac-Man only lane (0730-0930 and 1630-1830 Mon to Fri)
If they bother you and you’d rather find out what they mean, contact the council and report unauthorised marks on the highways, which is an offence under [section 132 of the Highways Act 1980](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1980/66/section/132). With any luck they will reply with an “actually these markings are….” and you’ll have your answer.
r/drivinguk will help here
That’s been bugging me since I visited tamworth. I need an answer or I’ll have another sleepless night
Space hopper parking bays
Scoring system for mowing down pedestrians
Just to be sure – when you say you’ve seen them do you mean in person or on Google Street View? If it’s the latter it could be a distorted normal roadsign
Is it the beginnings of the word SCHOOL, or rather the C, O and O bits.?
Speed camera with a fisheye lens. Catching speeding skateboarders
Is there any context? Could that explain the markings? I’ve never seen this road marking and having done some searches, Highway Code, etc, I’d can’t find anything.
I think it’s to encourage cyclists and motorbikes to use the centre of the lane. Possibly due to a restricted view junction ahead
Only thing I can come up with as an educated guess is that they are countdown to a bend in the road which has a junction on which is partially obscured or limited view.
Looks like they start at the start of the drop curb. What’s off to the left?
That’s where bikers get their nos/boost filled up
They indicate its time for us to scour the highway code, with any luck a handful of us will learn about driving on the left.
Had a dig round, couldn’t find anything on these! They have been there since sometime between May – August 2010 and have been repainted several times.. They always appear to be before some kind of hazard (junction/pedestrian crossing) so perhaps an attempt at some kind of “slow down”/”hazard” from the council?
It’s to encourage motorbikes and cyclists to move to the centre of the lane. Normally because the bend has low visibility… I honestly have no idea but that sounds good no?
Road has been working out and developed abs.
Oppai.
Something to do with Ramadan..so they pray in correct location

Is there a school or anything nearby?
