Bollard

Have other villagers spotted the new child-shaped bollard outside Lickey Hills Primary School on Old Birmingham Road?

I know it’s meant to deter people from parking on the pavements around the school, but I think it’s really creepy and quite distracting.

I’ve seen several drivers slow down or do a double-take when they see it, and two neighbours told me they actually thought a child had been abandoned outside the school!

Surely there is a better way to stop people parking badly – would “normal” bollards not suffice?
