Signal Art Program
To further enhance the public art program, a new initiative involving city traffic signal
boxes is in the process of being implemented. The program commissioned artists to design
original artwork for traffic signal boxes throughout the City. Initially the program will
include 11 signal boxes at various locations throughout the City with an emphasis on
pedestrian access or highly visible areas. The purpose of this program is the integrate
the traffic signal boxes into the surrouding physical landscape and to beautify public
spaces. The initial three boxes have been installed on Holiday Lane at Liberty Way,
Oath of Allegiance, the second installation is on Rufe Snow at Dick Lewis, Pigfish,
and the third installation is on Rufe Snow at Stardust, Red Horse Rider.
