This study is a continuation of the planning effort that began with the Routes 611 & 263 Corridor Study conducted by DVRPC with Phase 1 and Phase 2 completed in 2008 and 2009, respectively. The Phase 2 report presented a list of improvement recommendations for the corridor. The current project developed one of these: to provide a uniform, coordinated community wayfinding signing plan throughout the PA 611 and PA 263 Corridor that promotes a unique identity and indicates destinations across municipal borders. Along with the signing plan, this project provided cost estimates, identified funding sources, and prepared tools for decision making by the municipal and county participants. The project information also serves as a viable template for other municipalities pursuing MUTCD-compliant community wayfinding signing.Geographic Area Covered: Hatboro and Jenkintown Boroughs, and Abington, Cheltenham, and Upper Moreland Townships in Eastern Montgomery County, Pennsylvania
Key Words: Community wayfinding, MUTCD, signing district, guide signs, design standards, The Old York Road, cost estimates, enhancement markers, directional signage
