It is three years since the Queen raised Brighton and Hove to the dignity of a city.

Immediately, and very properly, the council set about adding the word "City" to its notepaper and altering a number of signs.

However, no one seems to have given the good news to the department responsible for road marking and directional signs.

Several important roads being resurfaced still have the legend "Town centre" where they should have "City centre".
