If your route can be organised as a predominantly self-guided walk this means you don’t need so many marshals or signs. This reduces the cost, time and effort spent putting up signs. However, large, mass- participation events do need highly visible marshals and may well need signs placed at strategic points to keep people on the right route. If you want to put up signs you’ll need to get approval from the local authority. If the route is mostly self-guided everyone should be given a clear map. Sections through parks and green spaces may need additional marshals to help point.
