Wasson Way

Wasson Way is a bicycle infrastructure project in Cincinnati, Ohio, where a former Norfolk-Southern Railroad Company line is being converted into a transportation corridor for pedestrians and cyclists alike. Due to the phased installation of the eventual 7.6 mile long trail, the identification and navigation system has been strategically designed to allow for an organic additive process.

Tall identification signs are located at major roadways to heighten visibility of the trail system to the public.

Due to the urban setting and future trail expansion plans, cross-streets are used for emergency access identification rather than mile markers.

A location strategy plan outlined the function of each sign type in the comprehensive wayfinding system.

Colorized plans were drawn for use in public meetings to strengthen and clarify communication of the design intent to community partners.
