Pro Football Hall of Fame replacing iconic sign along Interstate 77

CANTON, OHIO – On Monday, the Pro Football Hall of Fame began installation of a new highway sign, featuring a high-resolution marquee display. The Ohio Facilities Construction Commission provided a grant for the project, which is set to last the entire week of June 12. 

The cutting-edge display will continue to enhance the visitor experience at the Hall of Fame, while also allowing new opportunities for interactive content to be displayed. It had been nearly 15 years since the iconic Hall of Fame sign had been built alongside Interstate 77. 

Ellet Sign Company, an Akron-based organization, created the new sign, which includes a light-up Hall of Fame logo. The high-resolution LED display by Daktronics will be seen by approximately 90,000 travelers every 24 hours on I-77. 

When finished, the project will have been completed one year since the first concepts were created.
