Wilmslow Town Council has purchased six new boundary signs to announce entry into Wilmslow.
The sign on Woodford Road replaces an old one, which still referred to Macclesfield Borough Council, and the other five are located on entrance points into the town which were not previously marked, such as Alderley Road and Manchester Road.
The six signs cost £3900, plus installation costs.
At their meeting earlier this month, Wilmslow Town Council agreed to also install planters at the signs to improve their appearance. Summer plants will be planted shortly and the intention is to replace these with winter plants later in the year.
Cllr Jo Milnes, Chairman of Community and Order Committee, said "We bought the gateway signs to enhance Wilmslow as there was no signage to tell anybody they were actually arriving in Wilmslow."

If people don't know they are in Wilmslow , I am sure they will when they look at there sat nav.
Spare a moment of your time and say what you think this £4000 could have been used on for the benefit of the people who live here, not those who are driving through.
