The new Cambridge police station has been open nearly two months but visitors to the town would have had trouble finding it if they had followed the signs.
They pointed to the old station in Dick Street where a hand-written message pasted on the push button system with bits of black tape explained police had moved to 2 Fort Street.
Of course, if you are a visitor, the next task would be to find where Fort St is.
Tipped off by The News, a Waipā District Council contractor removed one sign on Tuesday and turned another on the roundabout outside the Town Hall towards Fort Street.
A spokesperson said the signs were not council’s responsibility but was happy to help after a police staffer asked for help.
