BT Public Notice - Payphone Kiosk Removal
BT Public Notice - Payphone Kiosk Removal
The notice is self-explanatory, part of a nationwide trend that has seen a dramatic reduction in the payphone network over recent years. As mobile coverage improves there will undoubtedly be more victims. It is sad but inevitable - many young adults today have never used a payphone. Nevertheless, considerably more than 42 days had elapsed since the notice date of 21.9.16 when this photograph was taken and the telephone was still functional - possibly some objections had been received.
