GREAT FALLS â After a year of work, the Great Falls Wayfinding Plan is complete and ready to be implemented.
Wayfinding simply means providing directions and information to let people know what the community has to offer and how to get there. The city-wide directional program includes signage for both drivers and pedestrians to more than 40 destinations in town. The 116-page document includes design images for 63 motor signs, 17 pedestrian signs, and up to 10 digital kiosks.
âThe digital kiosks will be a little more high tech. Theyâll be in locations like the Civic Center and probably on the fairgrounds and folks will be able to have some interaction with those digital kiosks,â explained Joan Reeden with the Great Falls Business Improvement District.

With just over a week away from Christmas, last-minute shoppers are picking up gifts for their family and friends.
Where are they shopping this year? According to most national business reports, because of the rise in COVID-19-related illness, shoppers throughout the country are electing to shop online or in their local communities.
Numbers released by a national survey of several businesses show that nearly seven in 10 small businesses will see the winter holiday season as a top sales opportunity for their business. It is estimated 60% of Americans will do most of their shopping with local retailers this year along with online shopping.
