Highway signs with information for visiting Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument will be installed along the Interstate 95 and Route 11 corridors between Medway and Island Falls, Maine beginning the week of October 21. 

A total of 22 signs will be installed in or near Medway, Stacyville, Sherman, Patten, and Island Falls. Six of the signs will be located on the I-95 corridor with the remainder along the Route 11 corridor in the Katahdin area.

The sign placement is the culmination of a three year effort to get informational signs for the monument approved, constructed and installed and included the coordination between the National Park Service, the Maine Department of Transportation and private sector contracts. All contracts were awarded by the National Park Service.

The installation of all 22 signs is expected to be completed by the end of November 2019 and will be ready for the 2020 winter season.
