SUMMARY:Comprehensive Signage Pop-Ups
DESCRIPTION:TTC’s Comprehensive Signage Plan is back for a second round of community engagement with in-person pop-ups at Johnson Creek Trailhead and Festival Beach on November 4th from 9 – 11 AM. We value your feedback\, opinions\, and Trail expertise\, which have helped shape our recommendations for an improved on-Trail signage system. For more info and project details\, click here.\n  \nMore info about the signage plan: \n\nThe Trail is currently undergoing a Comprehensive Signage review that will produce a list of recommendations for consistent signage and wayfinding directing Trail users and visitors to and along the Butler Trail. New signage will improve connections between areas along the Trail\, including trailheads\, parks\, and other community areas. The project aims to enhance the Trail experience without taking away from the natural beauty while highlighting natural systems and educating users about the systems’ functions. Improved wayfinding will increase safety on the Trail and promote The Trail Conservancy’s new identity as the primary steward of the Trail with increased branding. New signage would present information simply and uniformly\, using clear fonts and simple design contributing to Austin’s diverse communities with multilingual text.
