Following constant problems of graffiti on the bridge, Network Rail have painted Lobley Hill Road railway bridge a new green holly colour. This colour makes it harder for graffiti to show.
Susan Craig, Leader of the Lib Dem Focus Team in Bensham and Lobley Hill, said, “I am pleased action has been taken by Network Rail. I have taken up a number of graffiti problems recently. Graffiti can ruin a neighbourhood and it is important that it is cleared up quickly.
“The police have worked closely with Network Rail on this matter and hopefully their efforts will discourage those who daub graffiti in the first place.
“The bridge is a well known landmark in Bensham as it carries the East Coast line across one of the busiest roads through this part of Gateshead.”
