Sat hunched over a picnic table next to a pram, her back to traffic, the eerie figure has fast become the stuff of folklore.
So much so, locals have even given her a nickname, as the legend of 'Betty Bypass' spreads.
Baffled drivers are said to look out for her while passing with truckers spotted stopping for a photo on their travels - even council officials with safety concerns have been known to seek her out.
