Local Blogger: Are the new Telford signs really necessary?
Local Blogger: Are the new Telford signs really necessary?
Let me introduce to you The Wrekin Giants Fart Fumes, and the first of their musings…
“So I thought it was about time to write a blog about the new “Welcome to Telford” signs dotted about the place. What do people really think of these signs? Did the Council make the right decision spending money on these or should the money have been spent on something more worthwhile instead?”

Quick answer- “no”
I certainly think there’s been a dire lack of local consultation in terms of these signs – especially in Wellington…
I would of been nice to have a pictures of each area where the sign is..
Would have been happier if they’d have filled all the pot holes in.
Waste of time,money and effort. There’s at least 2 of these along the holyhead road within 500 yards of each other. Cut them down and cover the potholes with em!
Not just Telford, they’re all over the country apparently.
They are a bit blehh…. Not very enticing but then neither is Telford.
Definitely “NO”
I think they are ugly. I don’t like the brown. But then I don’t like the brown ‘rich in heritage’ signs either. Also, some have the existing Telford signs (that look much better) still in place about 10 yards down the road which is frankly odd.
Waste of money that could have been put to better use making our local hospital better.
Could have been spent towards the cuts at the Hospice now having to remove two beds on ward to save costs ,
Totally ugly signs and a complete waste of money.
They are a waste of money
It’s a no no from me.
Ugly signs and it I find it irritating that the pic says Telford and the brown bit also says Telford, so it’s basically Telford Telford… it’s stupid, don’t need telling twice. Sack the marketing people who came up with that design and it’s not like it’s a nice pic either.!! Waste of money.!!!
The money spent on these would not have been spent on the PRH. That’s down to the government not the council.
I personally think they look a bit naff
Enjoy them while they are nice and clean because their isn’t a sign cleaning Program as I see.Loads of dirty signs with dirt and mildew on.
Who in the right mind wants to advertise telford waste of money why not put the money into the local parks or fix some pot holes
Waste of money
Let’s just get rid of it?!
How about the money political parties are spending to get you to vote for them? Is that a waste?
