Endangered - Traffic Warden - Skipton, North Yorkshire

Traffic Warden

I was in Skipton this week and chatted to the lady who features in my photo posted today. I asked if I could take her photo and as you can see she said yes.

Turns out she and a colleague based in Ripon are the last 2 traffic wardens in North Yorkshire. Now I know why I never see them on the streets any more.

  1. what a shame, isn't it?

    Where I'm from, we have (too) many traffic wardens- some to guide tourists, others pretty much showing off their hot bikes. ;)

  2. Only two. I think even we have more than that.
