WAYZATA, MN – The City of Wayzata initiated the Wayfinding Signs project during its recent City Council meeting, marking a significant step towards improving local navigation. The goal is to provide clear directions to key points of interest, promoting community engagement and enhancing the overall experience for residents and visitors alike.
The Wayfinding Signs will serve as guides to cultural and civic landmarks such as the beach, the Depot, City Hall, the Library, and Police and Fire facilities. The first phase of the project is expected to cost approximately $57,000 and will involve installing numerous blade signs on existing light poles throughout the town.
Key directional signs are also planned for installation at the intersections of Superior and Lake, as well as Superior and Wayzata Boulevard. These installations will coincide with the reconstruction of these intersections in collaboration with the Wayzata Bay Center.
The City Council has approved the Contract Documentation for the New Signs, marking a crucial step in the project’s progress. Final approval of bids is anticipated at a later stage, ensuring a thorough selection process for the successful implementation of the Wayfinding Signs initiative.
This endeavor underscores the City of Wayzata’s commitment to creating a more navigable and community-focused environment. As the Wayfinding Signs project unfolds, further updates will be provided, reflecting the city’s dedication to enhancing the overall experience for those navigating its streets.

Speaking of signs, what is the city going to do about the cars that speed thought the Circle Drive neighborhood? I think that they should make East Circle Drive a one way leading out to Lake. There are no sidewalks, and the traffic traveling through the neighborhood are not residents just people simply using the street as a cut through, with no regard to the children and citizens that are out taking in the beautiful outdoors.
