Cape Charles Installs New Wayfinding Signs

October 18, 2020 by Wayne Creed 2 Comments

Five wayfinding signs were installed several years ago to direct visitors to various locations in town. The Town recently purchased and installed replacement signs that conform to current standards of the VDOT community wayfinding sign program.

These signs are basically Directional signage that helps people get to where they’re going.

The signs can help visitors that are unfamiliar with their surroundings get to where they are going.

    shoooeeeee………signs, signs, everywhere signs, blockin out the scenery breakin my mind………am I showing my age ?
    I don’t now folks, several kinds of turtles are born all over the shore and there aren’t any signs anywhere showing them the way to the water, yet they find it. I am holding on to hope that humans, whether they are natives or tourists, could have found the beach w/o a VDOT approved sign.
    Are these signs a perfect example of too much government dumbing down overtaxed citizens paying for signs we don’t really need ?
    I don’t know, maybe grandma was a dummy for teaching me to follow my nose, and turtles ? NOT
    Yeah I have it a little bit up to here with all the billboards too. The Shore is so much prettier ( NOT) with all these signs and billboards.
    All the locals have their local knowledge and all the tourists have their smart phones to find the way. With that in mind, we humans can’t even be as smart as a new born turtle ? I guess not, so now we have BIG TECH smart phones ?
    My apologies to the sign companies, and to grandma for finding fault in her for teaching me anything.
    Still just having fun here.

    Very perfunctory. Not indicative of the City’s culture, or the area’s distinctive features. Looks like they were designed by someone with a traffic engineering background rather than someone who knows how to design wayfinding signs.
