Road closed after sign left dangling from Broughty Ferry railway bridge

A sign warning drivers of a low bridge has been left dangling in the road after being hit by a high vehicle.

The incident has left the sign indicating the bridge is 9ft high hanging from an electrical wire in the middle of St Vincent Street, in Broughty Ferry.

Police have closed the road for a number of hours although traffic has not been badly affected.

One eyewitness said: The headroom sign above the bridge is swinging about. It is hanging suspended a couple of foot off the ground.

It would have been very nasty if it had fallen on someones car. Police have closed off St Vincent Street between the Monifieth Road and Brook Street.

Pedestrians can still go through as there is a railing on the walk way but the traffic cant go through.

This is very old, 2007 by the looks of it, but it's listed in Google News for some reason:

What a man does with his bicycle in his own bedroom is nobody else's business I would've thought.

P.S. There's a follow up.. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/glasgow_and_west/7098116.stm

Apparently someone was fined £100 for having (consensual?) sex with a shoe in Edinburgh.

He thought he had a Raleigh good chopper.

"Late" Jim now an internet sensation.

The Tayside man medically diagnosed with chronic lateness has seen a Spanish advert he starred in become an internet sensation.
Jim Dunbar, 57, from Carnoustie, jetted off to Barcelona to film the commercial, which now has nearly 30,000 views online.
With the two-minute video being shown in South America as well as Barcelona, Jim hopes it can raise awareness of his condition from Carnoustie to Catalonia to Colombia.
The clip shows him showing up late for the cinema, as well as for a funeral and missing a ferry.

When asked if Davis appeared threatening to the library staff or patrons, Hopkinson said he wasn't sure if there was any threat.

"I don't think he had any free hands to make any threat," the officer said.

:lol:
