What is Next Generation 911 (NG911)? Is there any type of trail signage system that is more or less conducive to the NG911 upgrade?
Are there uniform 911 signage standards for the central Iowa trails system? If not, should there be?
The fiberglass signage that Des Moines uses has not performed well. What are other entities using? Have they performed well?
At what interval are 911 signage being installed at? Access point only? Line-of-sight? 1/4th mile?
