Wayfinding Streetscape Planning

The City of Homer developed a Wayfinding and Streetscape Plan in 2022. The goal of the project was to develop a thoughtful wayfinding plan and an inviting streetscape improvement plan that supports a vibrant Pioneer Avenue corridor, Central Business District, and connections to the Homer Spit.

What is wayfinding and streetscape?
Wayfinding uses landmarks, signage and pathways to help visitors and residents more easily navigate and more fully experience Homer. Streetscape design such as waysides, site furniture and plantings help make the journey safer and more enjoyable. This project will provide the City with a long-term plan and design standards for developing streetscapes and placement of vehicular and pedestrian-focused signs.
