    To help people remember what car park they have parked their cars in. The entrances to the shopping centre are also know as colours e.g. red entrance, yellow entrance ect

    Ok so the yellow entrance that you are well aware off goes to a car park with yellow markings.
    The red entrance that you are well aware off goes to a car park with red markings.
    The blue entrance that you are well aware off goes to the carpark with blue markings.

    Yes I'm.. aware!
    What I'm asking if you're not reading well.., These marking are on the Road in the carparks and on the pavements ... Nothing too with the entrances in which I never asked about.

    You drive you car into a car park and it has yellow markings on the road and pavements you are in the yellow car park beside the yellow entrance.
    You drive your car into a car park and it has red markings on the road and pavements you are in the red car park beside the red entrance.
    You drive your car into a car park with blue markings on the road and pavements you are in the blue car park beside the blue entrance.

    Havent seen the markings referred to but could they be survey markings? Quite often when works are being undertaken surveyors use spray paint to mark positions of note or for future reference, could these be the markings? If they're more formal in nature this will obviously not be the case.

    So here I am live at the scene. A more helpful explanation in the original post would have been a great help but I am pleased to report I have finally got to the bottom of the mystery and unfortunately it is not very exciting.
    Someone is doing ground engineer works and tracing pipes and services under the ground. Each colour represents a different service. E.g. blue electric cables. red waste pipes , yellow telecom. The numbers relates to the depth the pipes/cables are buried.

    I better open my eyes more, I have never noticed different coloured road markings in the carparks! Then again, I mostly walk to the shopping centre so that could be it.

    I actually didn't even see them but was just around the green and yellow entrances not by the pedestrian crossings or smyths car park. They are planning building work for there I'm pretty sure though so the survey for engineering works makes sense.
