Ugh! Dash after semi-colon!
When neither are necessary - there really shouldn't be any punctuation at
all right there.
Maybe it's an attempt at a smiley, to show that the author was aware of
the combination of joke and koan implicit in "intentionally left blank"
posters. A winking smiley with no mouth; or with no nose and a long,
gaping mouth, reminiscent of Munch's 'The Scream'. I really hope it's just
bad grammar, as either of those would actually be a bit unnerving.
The author needs to be Trussed up.
It says at the bottom what looks like "Post at Piccadilly line
stations", which suggests that some important Picc-specific poster is
awaited.
I thought it was just because it had a Pictish colour scheme, but that
would make far more sense.
