What is your opinion of the new internal tourism signs that will soon be erected in Port Alfred?

Sunshine Coast Tourism is coordinating the placement of new internal tourism signs throughout Port Alfred and will follow suit in the rest of Ndlambe soon. The uniform blue and white signs may however not be erected on the R72 as it is a provincial road, which had new signs for accredited tourism establishments only erected last year. What is your take on the new signs?
