All roundabouts in England, Scotland, Wales and NI decorated in countries flag
The government should make it legal/possible for all county councils and local authorities to paint all roundabouts in the colours of the respective countries flag.
Our national flag and those of our United Kingdom family should be a source of pride.
The petition to do this should include some compulsory measures being enforced by government on councils to redecorate roundabouts in national flag colours when in need or repair or repainting.
This petition fits with the government’s own agenda of wanting to see more flags, and what better way to do this.
There should be no excuses, such as painting roundabouts make them unsafe, as clearly a colourful roundabout painted in the countries respective flag make the roundabout stand out much more.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.
Signage and maintenance on roundabouts are a matter for the authority managing the road network on which the roundabout is situated. Depending on the roundabout in question, this could either be the local authority, or National Highways.
