Networked Signage and Interpretation (Streets and Spaces) install visible, distinctive signage that provides clear orientation, and encourages exploration, defining routes and options, using public spaces, the lanes, the named district and neighbourhood identities and destination/arrival points. Connect this work with the revitalisation of the public spaces as distinctive destinations within this access network. Provide seating every 100m throughout (as proposed in the NPC
Pedestrian Environment Audit). Interpretation need not mean more signs; reduce clutter by combining public infrastructure with public information, creating ‘information objects’ from existing infrastructure, furniture and public buildings as well as new structures and new commissions (public art).

Signs to help people know what is up each street
