BOCA RATON, Fla. -- People walking in downtown Boca Raton can now look down if they want help finding their way.

The city installed more than a dozen pavement signs around the downtown area.

They have arrows pointing you toward key destinations in the area as well as the distance to travel.

The signs are all a part of the city's effort to make it easier to get around downtown.

"What we have been trying to do for the last few years is make our downtown more pedestrian friendly. We do it by regulating traffic and making it easy for people to find places to go," said Boca Raton City Council member Andy Thomson.

You'll find most of the signs at main intersections in downtown Boca Raton.
