When paint is not enough, add a warning cone, but do not, under any circumstances, consider actually repairing the dangerous condition.
Good news! Well, kind of, sort of. Visitors might recall the treacherous sidewalk abyss adjacent to a busy Memphis street that I regularly walk on. The first attempted fix was to spray orange paint around the edge.
But maybe someone broke their leg despite that aggressive risk-reducing measure, because now the city has a new fix: an orange cone! Cement apparently is still not being considered.
But, oops, we also have a new problem a couple yards farther down: a curb stone in the middle of the sidewalk.
