NVVT efforts to move 'Welcome to Napa Valley' sign
02/03/2023
In an article published last month by Edward Booth, discussion on the safety of the southern “Welcome to this world famous wine growing region Napa Valley” sign near Oakville took place.
The Napa Valley Vine Trail Coalition is currently at work on the design and engineering phase of the Yountville-to-St. Helena segment of the county-length pathways is, — with endorsements from the Napa Valley Vintners and Visit Napa Valley — proposing to move the sign farther south.
The backdrop of the current sign location — of Napa Valley vineyards and the Mayacamas Mountains — would be similar in the new proposed location, Stults said. Casey-White added that the Vine Trail coalition is committed to working with Napa County and all the various jurisdictions to figure out the placement of the sign, and will, if necessary, move forward with moving the sign using private philanthropy funds.
