3.3 Information panels
Information panels
series of eight information panels runs north from the car park, beginning with a sign to welcome visitors and give them a sense of orientation. However, some visitors find this sign difficult to use and are unaware of the best route to take on leaving the car park (Scott et al. 1998). Other panels describe the railway line, the wildlife of the track, bog plants, vegetation in adjacent ditches and hydrological management. The monochrome panels are lxl.5m in size. Perhaps because of the enclosed and linear nature of the trail, the information panels attract a great deal of attention and are used by 84% of visitors (Scott at al. 1998).
