However, it's an incomplete solution. Around here, official cycle routes have fingerposts which show a bicycle icon and the number of the route. It's not a destination, just an indication that cycle route 82 is along a particular direction. Similarly, the UK has many public footpaths and bridleways. Where they join a highway there is usually a fingerpost with an icon of either a walking person (footpath) or a horse (bridleway). No destination is given. It's useful to indicate, in some way, that these are signs for footpaths or bridleways so that people know what they're looking for when navigating. Also, the town where I live relies heavily on tourism. Several months ago it installed four fingerposts pointing to various destinations within the town. I've currently handled those in the description but it's a very clunky way of doing it. See, for example. https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/5995875128 and https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/6201876775 I would welcome some way of tagging those meanings on information=guidepost. Maybe, as part of figuring out the best way to handle destination signs, we could also consider those issues. -- Paul
