There are 3 places where signs are dangerously positioned and fallen on pavements. Quiet street, Milsom street and outside the Guildhall

Reported via mobile in the Obstruction on road or pavement category anonymously at 19:10, Monday 1 April 2024

Sent to Bath and North East Somerset Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 5792149.

I turned into Quiet street from Milsom street on Thursday 28th March in the afternoon around 4.45pm. I promptly went flying, having fallen over the yellow road sign that had fallen over in the middle of the pavement. I injured my leg and wrist. The manager of Music Biz came to my aid to help me up and offered me a seat in his shop whilst I sobbed with pain and shock. He stood the sign back up, hence the photo of it upright. I returned on Friday to take photos of it, and other fallen road sign on the pavement in Milsom street and on the corner of the Guildhall. I am a fairly fit mid 60 year old with good eyesight, but I still fell over the unexpected fallen sign in Quiet street. I don’t understand why these sign are placed on pavements anyway. Upright and fallen, they are obstacles to pedestrians. I was also shocked to see other instances of fallen signs, potentially causing further falls and accidents.In addition, the e- scooters outside the Guildhall are also blocking the pavement and are dangerous to pedestrians.
