30 mph sign obscured by bushes
Reported via desktop in the Sign Missing/Damaged category by Councillor Jonathan Andrews at 15:13, Sunday 7 June 2026
Sent to Bromley Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9575755.
I have seen a report noting that this 30 mph sign, as you come south through Rookery Road into the centre of Downe, is obscured by bushes and vegetation. I reported this a few months ago as the local Councillor, and visiting the area today, it looks no different to when I raised it previously. Please can this be fixed and the sign made visible - it is an important sign that reminds drivers to slow down as they come to the centre of the village.
