Drivers left perplexed by multiple spelling mistakes on town's road signs

Road signs in Somerset have been causing problems for locals recently as at least four road names are spelt differently on separate signs which has baffled a number of people and left residents divided. Some find the spelling slip-ups in the town of Weston-super-Mare funny while other residents blame the council for incompetence.

The mistakes can be found on Becket Road which is spelt with two Ts on a different sign and Queen's Way which is spelt three separate ways. Austen Drive is also spelt with an 'E' on one sign but with an 'I' on another just a few hundred yards away, while Ryecroft Avenue is spelt with and without an 'E' in a separate part of town.
