Strange Plumstead Road double yellow lines gaffe in Norwich

Anne Martin, owner of the Great Eastern Model Railways shop in Plumstead Road, near the Heartsease roundabout, noticed the strange set of double yellow lines at lunchtime today along the slip road outside Archers butchers.

The 49-year-old said: "It's hilarious! It looks like they're doing odd jobs all over the place and it's an absolute mess.

"The potholes have been filled in along the road but they've only painted the double yellow lines over fresh asphalt.

"There's definitely no parking if your car is less than a metre long but as there's no other yellow lines visible I'm guessing we can park anywhere else along the road.

"I'm no workman but you think it would have been easier to just carry on and do one continuous line.

"I'm sure they'll come back and finish it but it all feels disjointed."

Norfolk County Council apologised in February after a notice reading "pedestrian access to bisinesses only" popped up outside Anne's shop.

The county council has been contacted for comment.
