4.8.3

Original Document

These initiatives could be supported by a comprehensive signage and legibility strategy to support journeys to key activities, destinations and urban/open spaces through conventional signage and through public realm design, supported by virtual tools (see section 4.10 on digital connectivity) that provide more comprehensive guidance on how to experience and move around the city centre. Signage would integrate pedestrian journeys with cycling and public transport.

Plain English Translation

All of this needs to be supporting by really good signs and a change in the way we design the city so it’s more obvious how to get to key places.  This can be supported by the new digital tools described in section 4.10.  Signs would also make it easier to understand how people can combine walking with cycling and public transport.
