DESCRIPTION

The City seeks a qualified vendor to deliver signage design services for Ward Acres, focusing on a cohesive, system-wide approach. The project requires development of durable, low-maintenance, and cost-efficient signage solutions tailored for long-term use in a public park environment.

Key project components include enhancing trail navigation, orientation, and visitor experience through thoughtful and strategic placement of signage based on site conditions, visibility, and user behavior. Designs must incorporate educational and youth-focused elements, positive messaging for park stewardship and etiquette, and climate literacy and resilience content, in alignment with the city's sustainability framework.
