What are these G signs on the floor for? I’ve seen there everywhere in Kyoto, Kagoshima, etc.

I’ve seen these all over the streets of Japan. I’m surprised at the variety of these stickers… I’m guessing there are 5-10 different types of them, with some pointing in 2 directions, 3 directions, 1 side, etc. Also, the durability is amazing for how trafficked the streets of Japan are.

Can someone clarify how these are used and what purpose they serve?

  1. Gas pipe as some other redditors may have answered. In some of the photos you can see polyethylene written in katakana. Referring to plastic pipe.

  2. You’ve already gotten the answer but you could have just googled “地面 g シール”, or even just “g sticker on ground” in English and gotten it way quicker.
