Notice Information

Notice Title

855 - Campus Wayfinding

Notice Description

Over the years navigation has been a challenge for students, visitors and site staff around the campus. Various signposts have been established to direct visitors to destinations and buildings, and sometimes the result is not always as intended. Over time these signs have quickly become outdated and discoloured and require replacing. Therefore, Aston University require new wayfinding signs with fresher designs that incorporate Aston's recent re- branding colours and directional signage to include buildings which are shown on the Aston Campus Map.
