Wayfinding Signs ~ 2022
The wayfinding signs are helpful for people of all ages and are located in the highest traffic areas in Breckenridge. The signs will help inform visitors who might be coming here for baseball games, golfing, etc. and will also help remind our local residents that there are outdoor activities available for exercise and socialization.
The purposes of signage is to promote, identify, provide information, give directions or to raise safety awareness. Adding this signage to show residents and visitors what Breckenridge has to offer will not only promote and give direction to a few of the amenities located in Breckenridge, but will raise awareness for safety to possible extra pedestrian traffic.
