Fingerpost signs in mixed-use city centre Aarhus. They are nicely designed - dark green with white type. They point in different directions with the names of nearby residential apartment complexes and to facilities including the library (21 minutes - that's a careful strolling speed) and Theatre (13 minutes) and Aros art museum (10 minutes). There are also signs to underground car parking - cars are not forbidden in the city centre; it's just nicer and quicker (and free or cheaper) to walk and cycle or take public transport to get around.

Apparently there’s a conspiracy theory that 15-minute cities are urban prisons where residents must wear QR codes that track their restricted movements. As opposed to the reality: mixed-use neighbourhoods so handy that signposts can use walking minutes as the unit of distance to the library, theatres, cafés, community services, museums, parks and shops.
