Post Council Fail...
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/nor ... 057798.stm

I also remember reading about a council who painted a bus stop in one street... despite no buses having ever gone down said street [and the local bus companies said they had no plans to either...]

I can see how that is easily done, but ten years?

Ten years is horrendously and ludicrously long.

Given how some councils (ie Doncaster) waste money. That one seems very minor.
