Stay on the path

Nudge blog reader Connie Taylor passes along a story of a subtle nudge from a nature preserve in Sussex, U.K., where park rangers rely on nature, not clunky and expensive signs to keep hikers on the path.

Instead of many notices asking people to keep to the paths, any fallen or pruned off branches were pleasantly positioned at the sides of the paths making them preferable to stumbling about on the verges.
