"Wayfinding system" promotes walking in Portland

More than 100 new street signs throughout downtown Portland, Oregon, aim to help locals and tourists navigate the city on foot. The “wayfinding” signs feature maps, nearby attractions and other attractive design features. Supporters hope the network of signs will encourage more people to walk between destinations instead of drive.
