Broken bollard...

A broken bollard sighted in Marshall Street, Soho W1 and here we get the chance to look into the core of those street objects that appear all over the capital.

The bollard appears to be set around a central steel column which is hollow. This piece of street furniture forms part of a width restriction and must have taken one hell of a whack to have cracked in such a manner.

In times of austerity we must surely look at where we spend money and street furniture is certainly an area where local government can cut costs with less bollards, bumps and sleeping policemen...
