When new road markings are done , do the old ones have to be fully removed by law ?.I ask because i noticed this one and you can see the old marking still visible ( although not as clear as new ones)as it curves in front of the exit ? Has the contractor failed in its duty ?https://www.google.com/maps/@53.7161056,-2.6601175,3a,15y,126.87h,84.99t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1suq7xgj8Pb1suCvCUgy3SAg!2e0!7i16384!8i8192

Old_Geezer -thanks for link .What you think ?
Personally, no idea. Would assume they'd have been pulled up if they hadn't done it adequately.
What are we supposed to be looking at?
for me the link goes to what looks like an exit perhaps off a roundabout going towards the M65. i cant ork out whats supposed to be old or new
As an ex Highways Engineer, I can't see any old markings in that shot; just lots of skid marks!

Its the line that runs off the pegman box in left corner. Oh lordy ..me got scratch on my moniter...............
What a fuss!
What's a pegman box?
The box bottom left where the pegman lives.
The gingerbread man?
NO! They do not have to be 'fully removed' . It just needs to be 'clear' which are the new / correct ones!
On a practical level it is often very difficult or expensive to totally remove them . So they are normally just left to wear away !
Google themselves call him 'Pegman', suppose you could nae him yourself.
look to me like where new/old tarmac meets. Not a previous marking, after al hat on earth woud that previous marking have been depicting there?
