PROJECT
The City’s Transportation Department works to provide safe pedestrian access by creating new pedestrian routes
as well as improving existing areas. The City requests black & white line drawings, either representational or
abstract concepts, demonstrating a transportation theme, or life in Fort Collins. The winning designs will be
sandblasted into granite pavers and placed in various sidewalks. The artwork will be a signature piece in Fort
Collins and be highly visible to the public.
