The bridge linking Berkshire and Oxfordshire closed due to flood damage.
Valerie Gabriel, writing on the BBC Berkshire Facebook page said the sign annoyed her and there was "no excuse" for printed errors.
Oxfordshire County Council's Highways councillor David Nimmo Smith said he was unaware of the mistake. He said: "Our engineers know how to do the job, but they may not be the best at writing signs."

Technically, it's a grammatical or syntactical error, or a malapropism, and not a misspelling. Seeing as we're being persnickety. ;)

It makes me feel better. I thought my fellow Americans were the only ones who had no clue about apostrophes. Nice to know they're not the only ones. I, of course, never make mistrakes.
