Thanks both of you.
The road dividers here are very ill-maintained and ugly. No plants, but filled with mud on top of which grass grows by itself. Also some weeds!! The funds are utilized in other ways and also mis-utilized [you know what].
See picture. The yellow and black painted dividers are painted once a year and the smoke from vehicles makes it ugly. This was taken in Jan on a morning when some fisherman was selling fish [rare scene] to someone who was passing by in front of our gate.
