A BOLLARD in a low traffic neighbourhood (LTN) has been covered in what appears to be anti-vandal paint.
The bollard in Littlemore Road has reportedly been greased to prevent it being pulled out of the ground.
In June, Oxfordshire County Council revealed that it had spent £12,000 on repairs to bollards and planters in the East Oxford area of the scheme.

Amir Steve Ali, who spotted the Littlemore Road bollard earlier today, said: “I’m not sure if it’s a pro-LTN person, but this bollard is covered in black grease.
“Someone has poured black grease on this bollard so I guess if anyone tries to remove this bollard their hand will be full of black grease, I guess it’s criminal damage.”
The county council has been contacted for a comment.
