Sharrows and signage
There are a lot of blind spots for both cars and bicyclists
around the underpass so turning left from the Depot
Road in a car is nerve racking.
Biking up the hill returning to traffic away from Rocky River
Park is always congested

Often very loud with heavy traffic and busy intersections.
This is one of the worst stretches in Lakewood to ride
your bike on the street
Wider sidewalks, dedicated bike lanes, bump outs and
reduction of car lanes

Needs to be a path on the south side of the park road
to enter Rocky River Reservation at the base of the hill.
More signage at the start of entering the loop area to
indicate the intended flow of vehicular traffic and bikes/
pedestrians would be helpful.

the blind curve at the crosswalk by the dog park can also
be a challenge when the park is crowded
Flashing crosswalk lights like the ones outside of the
convention center in downtown Cleveland when
someone presses the button to cross. Maybe even a
stoplight at the boat launch intersection.

CLEVELAND TRAIL PILOT SIGN PROGRAM
SCALE: 1/2" = 1'-0"
COLORS CAN BE CUSTOMIZED / ADAPTED FOR OTHER TRAIL SYSTEMS
TRAIL SIGN PROGRAM INFORMATION STANDARD
• Trail brand may be customized via color/graphics style and logo
• Content/Information Hierarchy is the same throughout the system
• Structure/build and sign types are the same across the system
PRINCIPLES OF WAYFINDING
Connect people to place.
Wayfinding programs are developed for the purpose of helping people understand how to
effectively move from place to place in support of the greater experience.
Consistency is key.
Shape, color, naming, symbols, placement, etc. used consistently from one place to another help
to ensure trust and confidence in the information presented. These visual cues provide strong
connections for the people who encounter them.
Present information inclusively.
Present information for multiple levels of knowledge and experience. Use best practices for
signage and wayfinding information which have been studied and tested for this purpose.
Keep it simple.
Too many choices for someone who is new and unfamiliar to an area can overwhelm and foster
confusion and mistrust. Use best practices for signage information to help prioritize the
information that will mean the most to new users.

CLEVELAND TRAIL SYSTEM
© GUIDE STUDIO, INC.
PLEASE NOTE: This pilot of the Cleveland Off-Road Trails Wayfinding Master Plan will be tested through Fall 2019, at which point these guidelines may be updated.
For roads/trails where exisiting or
proposed networks connect across cit-
ies and neighborhoods, we recommend
utilizing the newly developed Cleveland
Trails Sign System. This program can be
adapted to highlight a new trail (with
color coding or brand) and should be
adapted for more connective on-road
experiences.
For roads/trails deep within the park
system, we recommend continuing the
use of Metroparks Signage but at point
of entry/exit, the Cleveland Trails Sign
System can be used to guide to city/
neighborhood amenities.
For commercial corridors with heavy
multimodal access and a need to be
recognized as a specific city district,
we recommend sign programs be
established that represent the city and
needs of the area. Sign types meant to
speak to vehicles, cyclists and pedestri-
ans are recommended.
In all on road/share road instances,
specialty sign programs such as the
Cleveland Trail Sign System will be ac-
companied by regulatory signage that
is universally used to control and regu-
late traffic between multiple modes of
travel. This includes pavement mark-
ings.
