A sign for one of Charlotte’s most notable streets for bar hopping has a glaring typo: Montford is spelled “Monlford.”
What’s happening: The misspelled street sign is located at the intersection of Montford and Abbey in front of 10 Park Lanes, the landmark bowling alley.
Charlotte Department of Transportation spokesperson Tamara Blue tells me the department plans to replace the sign by the end of next week.
Blue says that the misspelling is due to human error.
The cost to replace is less than $100, and the money will come from CDOT’s general maintenance fund, she says.
Between the lines: The sign has been up with the typo for over a year, Blue says. One whole year!
