Gateway Monument Program

• Project typeCapital Equipment / Other Projects
• Project cost$850,000
• Project schedule2023–2025

Project purpose

The existing gateway signs are outdated and have been a point of emphasis from citizens across the city. Some locations have already been completed as part of a major road improvement in that particular area. However, without a project, some of these locations may never get done. Signage, wayfinding and branding are important to our community’s image and promote economic development and tourism by attracting businesses, and visitors to the city.

Project description

This multiphase project will replace the existing outdated metal gateway signs with stone monuments using the same style as the park monuments. This includes 15 total locations at major entry points into the city. The following locations will receive a three-column sign:

• Pflumm Road and College Boulevard
• K-10 and Woodland Road

There are 11 other locations that will receive a single-column monument given the lower traffic volume or limited space.

Current status
