[Image taken 18.11.22] Burton Stone Lane, York. Note the absence of the two wands. (Compare with the intact structure: #187754.) These were at either end of the splitter island but barely visible after dark. They have a reflective covering but I noticed it was insufficient when I passed by two nights before I took this image. A resident who lives opposite said the wands were ripped off by the passage of one of the four drivers that had not seen the island. (Image of debris: #187795.) On my previous visit (on foot, after dark) I thought the give way lines were too close to the island: the turning circle for a driver to miss the splitter island is very tight. They have since been moved back - original markings are just about visible in this image but clearer here: #188664. Context/overview and links see: #187753.
