This sign is missing in December 2018. Perhaps the sign will return after this site is no longer a construction site.
The National Capital Commission (NCC) maintains waypoint signs throughout the Greenbelt which surrounds the city of Ottawa. The waypoints mark trail intersections. The signs include geographic co-ordinates and a map of other waypoints.
This particular waypoint (10 F) marks a three-way intersection. The trail to the north is the Greenbelt Pathway and heads to the parking lot (P1) along Shirleys Bay. The trail to the west is also the Greenbelt Pathway and heads to the intersection of Carling Avenue and Rifle Road. South of Carling Avenue, the Greenbelt Pathway continues through the entire Greenbelt. From the waypoint sign, the trail to the east (NCC trail #10) skirts the Ottawa River shoreline, eventually passing parking lot P2 on Carling Avenue.
