I had uploaded these greenway signs under the guidance of the idea that mass-produced trail markers are generally eligible, according to previous posts and guidelines on these forums. It was rejected for being mass-produced (understandable), so I appealed citing that it’s an important trail marker.
The appeal was denied, citing “The Wayspot nomination in question is a normal directional sign, which is an ineligible object under Wayspot rejection criteria.”, however this isn’t a directional sign in the sense that it’s pointing to a business or town. These signs can be found on the northernmost greenway (Averette Road Greenway) on Greenways | Town of Rolesville, NC, situated on the parts where the walking path cuts through the neighborhood sidewalk.
Now, comparing this to the clarification under Trails & Markers, it seems like this should match the former and not the latter.
The signs I submitted are mass-produced and mark the two different ways you can go on the greenway from this point, noting that this is ON the path pedestrians and cyclists would take, while the directional signs that would be denied in the example are pointing to different locations in the town.
What do you guys think? I’ve read some mixed messaging on more generic trail signs posted before, so would appreciate some discussion on my exact example.
