A company which put a stobie pole in the middle of an Adelaide bike path says it will divert the route around it — but only after publicity over the weekend highlighting the danger to cyclists.
A power pole has been installed in the middle of a bike path in Adelaide's northern suburbs, sparking safety concerns from cyclists and bemusement from others.A cyclist notified a councillor about it on FridaySA Power Networks, which put the stobie pole in, says it will fix the path to go around the obstacle this week but only after publicity over the weekend criticising its placement.
"On top of that, the loose gravel used to traverse around it can be mushy and slippery under wet conditions."Mr Buchanan had a look at it over the weekend and posted about it on Facebook yesterday alongside the message "You had one job".
A second pole is next to the path — rather than in the middle of it — but has a fence around it that also blocks the bikeway.He was unsure when the pole had been installed but said its location was chosen in consultation with the City of Salisbury council.
