Way Out
This helpful sign has appeared in Tesco's car park

So it's not just white van drivers parking in disabled bays that we have to worry about, it's everyday shopppers blocking the way to the car park exit too.

It's intended for Ewoowar's Motability helicopter, perhaps.

I can't really tell from here but that looks poor for two reasons: there's more than one exit, and it looks like it might be obscured when spring comes along from this angle.

I thought that they were re-designing the layout of the car park ,maybe they have put the signage up before changing the layout?

Having looked at the plan, the incorrect sign has been installed. See D2 on the plan.

Why do they put the signs up before the work has started? It surely doesn't make any sense at all, unless that's the actual project plan.
Ok, I see the layout isn't changing so it doesn't really matter.

Hmm, I see that the drop-off point is changing position aswell.

I don't understand why they have made the flow 2-way at the bottom end of the carpark next to Mill Road as shown on the diagram. No way is there space for 2 cars to pass, especially when the spaces next to Mill Road are used. This will be a cause of horn honking, finger wagging and bumps!

It doesn't really matter how they plan the layout. A large number of cretins that use it will still ignore the one-way systems and directional arrows.

What will people who used to park in the drop-off area/set down point and go and do their shopping do now? They'll have to walk all the way around the corner. They won't be pleased.
But it's away from the main entrance so Tesco won't be bothered, their security won't see it now.

Planning permission for the changes has not yet been granted either.

They have made that 2-way stretch wider - also now it is possible to drive once around the whole car park - rather than previously being shepherded past the P&C bays before being able to get back to the bays by Ware Road
