Drivers entering Grayson on Ga. 20 or Grayson Parkway will know when they’ve hit the city limits thanks to recently installed new gateway monuments.

The monuments will remind residents of the city’s clock tower since similar materials were used for construction of the monument bases.

The gateway monuments were first identified as a goal in the city’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan update from 2018. Together with a new branding effort, Grayson determined installation of new gateway and wayfinding signage with a common theme to mark the city limits would help guide visitors to the city.
