Ryde town entry signs undergo major repair and weatherproofing

Last updated:

The two illuminated Ryde town signs at the main entry points to Ryde were reported to be in a severe state of decay.

Councillor Malcolm Ross has played a key role in submitting a Public Realm application for funding to repair and weatherproof the signs.

Ryde Town Council, through their Community Planning Committee, approved a budget of £3,250 to fully rejuvenate the signs. Biltmore Printers vinyl wrapped the signs, and many of the timber supports were replaced or re-secured.
