SIGNS illustrating plans for a £3.9m park revamp have fallen foul of vandals.
The information boards were erected in South Park, Darlington, to let visitors see progress on work to turn it into a tourist spot.
The first phase is already under way, with initial ecological work, including assessments of each of the park's 1,200 trees, being carried out.
A council spokeswoman said the signs would be replaced in the next few days.
She said: "The work will include stepping up security measures to hopefully stop this kind of thing in future."
