Installation of Posts not required

Reported via desktop in the Markings category anonymously at 16:10, Tuesday 14 April 2026

Sent to Merton Council less than a minute later. Council ref: SRQ-1279529-Q5N5Z0.

I can count 32 posts outside my house within 30 metres and I have just noticed a pavement marking for another two posts to be installed - I do not understand given all the other posts why the council thinks we now need two more posts to be installed and would ask that these do not get installed adding to the clutter in the entire area.
