In the central part of Kiev, close to Sophia Square, on the corner of Vladimirska str. it were installed first road signs for Euro 2012. They should help visitors to navigate in the capital of Ukraine. "These pointers are pilot. They were installed in advance so that in case of comments or suggestions on their form, design and related services to be refined and corrected the deficiencies." - said the Head of Public Utilities, Dmitry Nowicki. At the beginning of the next year it is planned to install near 180 of such signs. They will be placed at the intersection of hiking trails, close to major tourist attractions and key facilities of Euro 2012. On the plates, which indicate the direction to the objects of inspection and their name, information is duplicated in Latin letters. On the pylons, as the system is arranged to orient the visitors - a large map, and the center of the city it depicts an enlarged scale. Also at pylons there will be displayed tourist routes of the capital.
We do hope, that till EURO 2012 all major traffic routes will be marked by such signs. Unfortunately, nowadays the situation is quite bad and foreign visitors are not able to move independently in Kiev and in Ukraine at all.
