Pavement next to planters closing road used by cars

Reported via mobile in the General highways enquiry category anonymously at 20:29, Sat 21 June 2025 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to Bristol City Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7743987.

This has been reported before. The planter that was moved is now in correct position. However cars are still going past the road closed sign. They do this by going on the pavement to the right, swerving to the left and straight on to Church Road.

Updates

  • A new enquiry has been raised for this issue.

  • Until the planters are removed from the road, drivers will continue to drive around them. A police car drove onto the pavement a couple nights back to pass around the planters too. So much for these modal filters supposedly posing no obstruction to emergency vehicles.
