We have reached another milestone and I'm pleased to present you with the 150th bollard of London at the Raft (Rail Air Freight Terminal) which is the Gatwick Express terminal/ rank for London taxi-cabs. I must admit I have driven a taxi-cab for over 15 years and I never knew why this rank was called the Raft, a special thank you to all my colleagues on twitter.If we look at the picture above you may notice you've seen this particular type of bollard before. It has a circular base near cylinder shape that tapers slightly towards a wider flat (slightly domed) top. The body/column of the bollard is not smooth which deters the sticker/flyer brigade.
Very rare to find a red coloured bollard the majority tend to be black in colour. This one certainly needs a little repositioning and a good wash/lick of paint.
150 not out and we march on towards the 200th.
