San Marcos crews began installing a new city marker along S. I-35, highlighting aspects of the community’s identity.
The gist
The city’s first-ever gateway sign is taking shape along the Texas Department of Transportation’s, or TxDOT, right-of-way. City crews will continue to install stonework, landscaping and lighting to complete the signage.
The marker’s design is consistent with existing wayfinding and park signage in San Marcos, featuring colors and materials inspired by the area’s natural surroundings, including:
- flowing river currents
- wild rice
- limestone from area riverbanks and Hill Country vistas
