Downtown Wayfinding Update
Project Overview
In anticipation of future growth and the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup, CAP/ADID--in partnership with the City of Atlanta--is developing designs to update the existing wayfinding infrastructure that was installed in 2006 and requires substantial investment to maintain state of good repair.
The current wayfinding work will provide planning-level recommendations on three interrelated elements:
- The current pedestrian and vehicular wayfinding system.
- The introduction of new, tactical and creative placemaking elements that deliberately integrate local arts and culture and can support the overall wayfinding messages.
- The incorporation of new or existing smart technology/wayfinding elements currently in the right-of-way (e.g. IKE Smart City).
It will also develop a design intent that can be advanced into final engineering and fabrication documentation in a future stage of development.
The current phase will continue through Spring 2025.
This work is funded through the Atlanta Regional Commission (ARC) Livable Centers Initiative (LCI) Program.
