Drive Signs - Proposed

The signs shown below are the result of a resident initiative. The original design was done by Susan Conway of Friends. Habitat, a nationally recognized sign company based in Tempe, produced these final conceptual designs.

Northbound Drive Entry Sign - Proposed

This sign will replace the original wooden sign that was on the east side of Scottsdale Road south of Jomax. As you drive northbound this sign will be after the power lines and before the Desert Walking Area.

Southbound Drive Entry Sign - Proposed

This sign will be on the west side of Scottsdale Road just south of Carefree Highway. This and the northbound sign create "bookends" for the Desert Foothills Scenic Drive.

Monument Sign - Completed

This is the enhanced versionof the original Monument Sign. This enhancement was completed in in 1995.

Roadside Identification Signs - Proposed

There will be double-sided signs with the words "Desert Foothills Scenic Drive" posted approximately every 1 1/2 miles on both sides of Scottsdale Road. The placement of the northbound and southbound signs will be offset so that the visual continuity of the drive is not lost - a passing motorist will see a sign every 3/4 mile. These signs will replace the current metal roadside identification signs that were posted by Friends and the City of Scottsdale in 1995.
