Paint/post local area maps on various public infrastructure pieces such as electrical boxes, signal control boxes, LRT control boxes, etc. This would both beautify often ugly structures and provide a helpful guide to visitors. Maps could include local businesses, parks and historical points of interest.

Awesome! And how about info that encourages people to walk to local businesses? 4 minutes this way to library. 5 minutes that-a-way to grocery store, 10 minutes this way to zoo, etc.

One thing I'd like to see is notes about nearby bike repair shops and drinking water sources along regional trails - if you break down or run out, you need to know where the nearest one is, and it's not necessarily visible from the trail.
