What has been spent on Wayfinding so far? How much are we spending on it this year or the next couple of years? (Councilman Chapman)
Response:
Transportation Signage and Wayfinding program expenditures to-date total $1.34 million, including approximately $766,000 on signage construction and installation and $576,000 on signage guidelines initial planning and development.
Currently three phases of the Wayfinding Project have been completed. Phase 1 consisted of parking guidance signage in Old Town, Phase 2 consisted of pedestrian pointers and pedestrian kiosks in Old Town, and Phase 3a consisted of vehicular directional signage in Old Town. Phase 3b, additional vehicular directional signage, is currently under construction with a completion date of April 2019. Additionally, pedestrian directional signage for businesses located off King Street in Old Town has also been completed.
For the remainder of FY 2019, an additional $150,000 in expenditures is projected for Phase 3b vehicular directional signage. For FY 2020, expenditures are expected to be $525,000 for Phase 4 and Phase 5, which will include interpretive signage, City Gateway signage, and destination identification signage for parks. In FY 2021, planned expenditures are $432,000 for Phase 6 destination identification signs for civic and historic sites, and in FY2022, planned expenditures are $241,000 for Phase 7 interpretive panels and district markers. The wayfinding project is scheduled for completion at the end of FY 2022.
Additional wayfinding project information can be found within the budget document on Pages 10.09 and 10.10 of the Community Development portion of the proposed FY 2020 – FY 2029 Capital Improvement Program.
