Is everyone familiar with the Sustrans Volunteer Net website? If not, follow this link:
https://susnet.sustrans.org.uk/start.asp (or click on the link in the list of links on the right)
As an example of how it can be useful to us, follow these steps to find out about signing conventions and associated issues.
On the Susnet homepage, click 'Ranger toolkit' (below left)
Click 'Essential ranger signing (VG012)'. This gives you a pdf file containing useful tips and an example of the standard red number patch plus white arrow on the blue NCN template.
'Signing dual numbered routes' and 'Destination signing' are also relevant.
If you click on 'Signs available' and then 'Filename Signs_available-2011.pdf', there is a list of all the patches that can be ordered from Sustrans, with their codes.
Returning to the 'Ranger toolkit' page, you can order your signs online from Sustrans, by clicking 'Sign order form' and filling it in using the codes.
The blog of the Sustrans Volunteer Rangers in the White Peak. Our area contains traffic-free cycling and walking trails, including the High Peak Trail, the Tissington Trail, the Manifold Track and the Monsal Trail, as well as various on-road cycle routes belonging to the National Cycle Network, in particular Ashbourne to Etwall. We ride these routes regularly, notifying Peak Park or Derbyshire and Staffordshire county councils of any problems. We also sign the trails which are parts of the NCN.
