Probably a navigational aid for boats and ships.
That occurred to me but if that was the case maybe it would point out over the water, or be directed upwards for aircraft. I thought it might have something to do with the shoreline/dune vegetation being protected.

Both good ideas I think. It is facing the ocean. But it is also right where the trail breaks out of the dunes and onto the beach. It's a pretty recent addition since it wasn't there a few years ago.

Seems like you have to thread the middle line... odd they wouldn't leave a small side portion for foot traffic.

I'll post another photo that kind of explains what's going on there... That photo shows a short paved connector between two off-road bike paths. (Yes, that's Jeannie on the path ahead of me )

Taken in Johannesburg last year. The auction advertised in the sign board did not yield any buyer, it seems. The building still looks the same and the sign is still there.

Don't climb on the bridge, OK?



But hey, stickers are fine, right?

I thought stairways were for going up or down to the next floor.
