Service signs for local towns
Ruapehu towns should have integrated information signs to show what services were available there, Ruapehu District Councillors agreed last week. The council was discussing their signs bylaws review when the subject was raised for discussion. It was suggested integrated signs, using symbols to indicate services available in a town, should be used to avoid the confusing proliferation of urban business signs often placed at a town's entrance. "You don't see hundreds of signs outside towns in the States," said Cr Cosford. "They have one sign which gives you all the information." Cr Shaw said signs were not needed. "If people are approaching a town they know full well there will be services they want there, and they will go looking for them," he said.
