A novel way of signposting Bath businesses is likely to be trialled in an effort to clear ther streets of some of the A boards that have been criticised for obstructing pedestrianised streets and pavements.

Louise Prynne, Chief Executive of the Bath Business Improvement District (BID), said:
“The BID is currently sourcing options for a trial of totem pole designs. These will allow businesses to signpost themselves without presenting a hazard, and will also enhance wayfinding around the city centre.

Retailers we have spoken to have welcomed the news that the Bath BID is taking a proactive approach in partnership with the Council to develop and progress an innovative solution.”
