If you've walked or driven over Gladstone Road Bridge in Barry recently, you might have noticed that it's been given a new pop of colour. The bridge has been painted with a brightly coloured mural as part of a large-scale public art project.
The Vale of Glamorgan Council has commissioned an artist to design two pieces of artwork for local infrastructure in Barry and Penarth, with the mural on Barry's Gladstone Road Bridge at the Waterfront being the first to be unveiled. The project, titled 'Crossing Bridges,' has been funded by the Welsh Government Active Travel Fund in a bid to encourage walking and cycling as an alternative to long-term commuting.
