Curbing Graffiti Issues

by andrewbond on 6 February, 2017

Graffiti is an issue City Wide but it is becoming a BIG ISSUE in our ward (Gunthorpe). Most of the electric boxes now have Graffiti.. Most of the Graffiti is untasteful and includes the use of Crude language. Not only does this look unappealing; it’s terrible that everyone (especially Children) are having to be exposed to that kind of language. This is Vandalism…not ART.

Although I have reported every case I have come across to Peterborough City Council  and they are removing what they can… it is SADLY never too long before the Graffiti reappears.

I have since been approached by individuals in our Local Community who have suggested that the only way they feel that we can successfully Curb this Vandalism is by replacing it with ART.

 

I would love to know everyone’s opinions on the below images; (Electrical Boxes that have been painted)

Do you think this will help TACKLE the issue…or PROMOTE it?
Do you like the LOOK?
