Clear directions to galleries, museums, concert halls and such

Galleries, museums and other visitor attractions hardly ever have decent directions from a railway, tube or bus stop, all the way to the destination. This should be put in hand for all of them. Some stops or signs say: get off/out here for ....eg Tate. But they do not take you all the way to the entrance. These need not be intrusive street signs — they could be like the footpath signs on routes in the countryside, but continuous.

They could be designed by London art and graphic design students and be as recognisable and become as familiar as the London Tube sign.

This would help Londoners as well as visitors find and use the marvellous places we are so lucky to have, and which have become one of the main reasons for people to visit London. And which are now in dire straits thanks to Covid.
