Re: Do You Believe It Was Fair To Reject This Trail Marker On Pedestrian Access Grounds?
Update on this: the trail marker at the entrance to the farm field (on the very same lane with the trail marker sign from the photographs) got accepted. That one does not have Google Street View. That trail marker is maybe 50m along the same road so I am bemused. Will re-submit the rejected one. -

I have re-submitted the trail marker. This is the marker that got accepted (screenshot from the Ingress Intel Map): What is being re-submitted: -

I should remind people that Google Street View has not been on the driveway where the marker actually is. Only the lane it's joining onto. The trail marker further along the driveway has been accepted, as shown above. @Faversham71-ING thank will add that to the supplemental information. I shall be "sticking to my guns" (in… -

Also in the UK countryside, there are often walkers on small roads and drivers are aware of this. Its normal to see walkers on roads like this, so I don't rate these as no… -

The trail marker is not techically on the lane. It's on the driveway leading up to the farmer's field. This would only be used a few times per day, if that, as there are only a couple of residential properties along this section of the trail (from the junction with the lane to the field). The fact there is a marked public… -
Do You Believe It Was Fair To Reject This Trail Marker On Pedestrian Access Grounds?
At least one person marked it as not meeting the criteria for a good nomination but I believe we are all in agreement here that trail markers make good Wayspots. The main critique is that it does not have safe pedestrian access. Not sure why they would put trail markers in places that do not have safe pedestrian access...… -
Re: Do You Believe It Was Fair To Reject This Trail Marker On Pedestrian Access Grounds?
A footpath (also pedestrian way, walking trail, nature trail) is a type of thoroughfare that is intended for use only by pedestrians and not other forms of traffic such as motorized vehicles, cycles, and horses. this is from the dictionary and counters all arguments about the safety aspect. While i agree in principal for…
