Tallaght gets new Wayfinding Signage
South Dublin County Council is proud to announce the latest element of the Villages Initiative – the Tallaght Wayfinding Signage project.
The signage project is the next phase in a number of recent enhancements by South Dublin County Council to our villages and town centres.
The County Town, Tallaght has been chosen to pilot the project and is the first area in South Dublin County to experience the introduction of the wayfinding signage and panels.
The Wayfinding Signage pilot project features:
- Highly visual signs aimed at directing cyclists and pedestrians around the Tallaght area.
- Information and direction to the key heritage interest points in the Tallaght Village area.
- Information on the main services and points of interest within a 5-7 minutes walking radius of each map.
- Main panels will include a QR code feature that provides links to heritage information as developed by South Dublin Library Services.
- Six map panels at key points in Tallaght Village and Town Centre and a series of finger post signs in the area.
- As further trails and walks are developed additional map panels will be added to encourage people to explore the other amenities in the area such as Tymon Park, Sean Walsh Park and the Dodder Linear Park.
Mayor Fintan Warfield added “the vision of the project is for South Dublin County’s villages and town centres to become more open and accessible, facilitating walking and cycling, increasing footfall and encouraging social and community encounters and interaction in festivals and performances.”
