Councils splash out to correct spelling errors on road signs

Scottish councils have forked out hundreds of pounds correcting spelling errors on street signs after mistakes by their employees.

The errors include Glasgow City Council, which said about five road signs had been corrected since January 2003 at a cost of around £300 for the Crowne Plaza hotel after an error by a council employee.
