Have you seen the wayfinding signs popping up in Medford?

Earlier this month, we helped the City of Medford install wayfinding signs that were implemented with funding from a MassDOT Shared Streets and Spaces grant. Increasing walking as a useful part of everyday life is a shared objective of many stakeholders in Massachusetts. One potential strategy to do so is installing wayfinding signs, which can give people clear information about walking routes and walking times to reach key destinations. We think the signs in Medford turned out great! The City hopes to gather feedback on the signs to inform future efforts, so a QR code was included so people have a place they can go to get more information.

WalkBoston has previously worked with communities through different Department of Public Health Programs (Mass in Motion & 1422) to implement systems of wayfinding signage. Learn more about these previous efforts and our methodology for implementation on our wayfinding page.
