National Cycle Route Waymarker
More elaborate but not as easy to read as its plain blue neighbour NT2274 : Local Cycle Route Waymarker. The cyclist is heading off on the Telford Path towards Granton and Leith; if he had taken the left fork he would have been on the Blackhall Path to Silverknowes and Queensferry. To the right is the access to the Craigleith retail park and on the left to Maidencraig Crescent.
National Cycle Network Mileposts

1000 Millennium cast iron mileposts were funded by the Royal Bank of Scotland to mark the creation of the National Cycle Network, and found along the cycles routes through the UK.

There are four different types of posts, "Fossil Tree" by John Mills, "The Cockerel" by Iain McColl, "Rowe Type" by Andrew Rowe, and "Tracks" by David Dudgeon. The four artists are from each country of the UK though all posts can be found in all four countries.
