Project Details
The Hempstead underpass linking Holt's old town centre to new residential areas was an uninviting and graffiti filled focus for antisocial behaviour. It is now a pleasure to walk through since the commissioning of paintings of local scenes hung as mural boards in the underpass. Now with an It's Your Community award Holt Town Council will be able to begin work on the longer Norwich Road underpass which links the residential area to the primary school by using the same approach. Not only has the appearance and mood of the underpass changed, but a great many local groups, including young people have been brought together in a common purpose which has been fun, engaging and a truly creative approach to a very modern problem.
