Provide context-appropriate wayfinding in all outdoor areas and entrances

Rationale: Accessible, clear, and comprehensive navigational signage placed at key locations supports those with varying cognitive and physical abilities, decreasing anxiety associated with wayfinding and promoting walkability in both indoor and outdoor settings for all.

Requirements

Demonstrate compliance with the below:
