Trail Wayfinding Plan

Overland Park is developing a trail wayfinding plan to help residents and visitors navigate to points of interest and key destinations along the Tomahawk Creek and Indian Creek trails. These trails are vital connectors between neighborhoods, parks, schools, and community destinations, but for many users, finding their way can be confusing.

This project will help determine the design and placement of signage along the trails to make walking, biking, or rolling more accessible, understandable and enjoyable for everyone.

We Want to Hear From You

Your feedback is essential to this effort. Whether you’re a frequent trail user or someone new to the system, we want to understand:

  • How you use the trails
  • How you currently find your way
  • What destinations you think should be easier to reach
  • What ideas you have for improving the experience

Take a short survey and share your ideas:

What Will the Plan Do?

The wayfinding plan will:

  • Identify key destinations that should be clearly marked along the trails
  • Identify a strategy for sign types and placement along the trails
  • Ensure that wayfinding is inclusive and easy to understand for all users
  • Help reinforce the trail system as a safe, connected, and valued community asset

The project is guided by input from community members, local stakeholders, City departments and leaders, and regional planning partners.
