Mystery green spots on road leave residents baffled

Large green spots painted on a road in Bristol have left local residents perplexed.

Dozens of the markings, ranging in size from around 30cm (1ft) to 1.2m (4ft) wide appeared seemingly overnight on Greville Road in Bedminster.

Local resident Max Walsh said the spots just popped up and they "don't serve any purpose", he said he has "absolutely no idea what they are".

Bristol City Council, said it is investigating the markings.

Three clusters of the bright green spots mysteriously appeared in the middle and at each end of the road but it is still unclear who created them.

Local resident Brook Morris, said: "We think they're part of an art installation because we've had a lot of street art down here.

"They seem quite cool, anything that's colourful is nice."

However, neighbour Claire Ogden, said she thought it was a bid to slow drivers down to 20mph.

"I don't think it will make much of a difference. But this road is quite funky and they like doing things differently so I wasn't surprised that it was green spots," she said.

"I wonder if they're maybe waiting to paint little frogs or lilies or something else on them"Mr Murals working on his mural in Birmingham. He is wearing a mask and side on to the camera, to the right on the photo. " class="sc-d1200759-0 dvfjxj"/>
