Murals to combat graffiti on the pumping station
The sluice gate building was the victim of regular graffiti which is unsightly and costly to remove. The Environment Agency and Mersey Life wanted to improve its appearance to reflect the significant improvements made to the river and the importance of the sluice gate in protecting the local area from flooding. They ran a painting project with four local schools. The pupils designed murals then painted the best designs onto the walls of the floodgates, with the help of Unity Arts, using eco friendly paints.
