Heaton Park embraces a new map design
Heaton Park is listed number two on the English Heritage Register of parks and there are nine listed structures in the park. The park sits over 640 acres and is one, if not the biggest municipal parks in Europe and has 1.8 million visitors a year.
ABG Design worked closely with the Heaton Park team and Manchester City Council to review the current maps and visitor guides. The size of the park was so large for visitors that the park found that there were large areas of the park that were not being used. ABG Design created a zoned map by colour so we could better identify what each area of the park had to offer. The new map has now been used in the new visitor guide and on all map signage throughout the park.
