00:00The colourful markings that earned a Burke and Head Road, the nickname Watsit Street,
00:05are still in place, despite plans to remove them.
00:08Royal Council decided to scrap the orange and yellow design after a six-month trial
00:12generated significant concern.
00:15Council leader Paula Bassnett previously said the markings were expected to be removed
00:19by the end of September.
00:21The street furniture and planters have been moved elsewhere, but the road markings visibly
00:26remain.
00:26Around £300,000 was spent on the scheme.
00:30Bassnett has described that spending as a waste of money.
00:34Preparatory work is continuing and its expected resurfacing work will take place later this
00:40month, depending on other works.
