Defunct signs that are hazard on the highway

Reported via desktop in the Damage to Sign (NH) category anonymously at 17:31, Thu 7 November 2024

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6706860.

Moderated by automated at 17:31, Thu 7 November 2024

There are remotely controlled temporary traffic management signs mounted in the central reserve on the M4 (J18-19) and M5 (J15-18a) around Bristol that are broken, but appear to be still drawing power (as flashing). They do not appear to have been used for years and a hazard should an errant vehicle hit the central reserve. Why are they still in place?
