IS Group have been commissioned by the Waterways Trust to
manufacture the new interpretation and wayfinding signage for the
Pennine section of the Rochdale Canal.
The design and implementation company Imagemakers are
collaborating closely with IS, with regard to specification and
material durability in the harsh outdoor environment.
Funded by a South Pennines LEADER grant, the project includes
Primary Hubs to link the town with the canals,
Secondary (wayfinding) Hubs, milepost signs and towpath
ribbons installed into the ground, indicating distances and
timescales to various places of interest.
The project will last three years with the majority of works
taking place in the Upper Calder Valley. IS Group are pleased
to be involved with this historic signage implementation
programme.
