Princes Road - remove writing on the road (written by contractors

Reported via mobile in the Markings category anonymously at 20:20, Tuesday 7 April 2026

Sent to Merton Council less than a minute later. Council ref: SRQ-1278759-H7P8L5.

When repainting parking bays/yellow lines (thank you), the contractors have ‘written’/‘tagged’ the road - as per the attached pictures.

This was preciously reported and a reply was given ‘ no action required’ - it is clearly requires if someone tagged the road or a wall it would be removed.

Thus please Can said writing/tagging be removed
