Legible London

Legible London

Legible London is a series of wayfinder posts situated in the West End of London. They are designed to reduce street clutter and make London a friendly, easy place to walk around. To take into account the different areas of London, the signs could look different according to the area (such as London's Chinatown). They are also trying to help people walk around to make people healthier and relieve stress on London's public transport. The scheme is supported by Transport for London and the Mayor of London and was developed by Westminster City Council.
