Sign dirty

Reported via mobile in the Sign Obscured (NH) category anonymously at 09:23, Wednesday 13 May 2026

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9444544.

Several signs along this section of the A38 are unreadable a night due to them being dirty. This can easily cause issues particularly to those looking to exit at mannadon. These signs have been unreadable for over 6 months now. I notice this issue been raised before but no action was made. Then the case was closed. Could you please explain why?
