Street art opinions sought for town's bridge

The artwork at Abbey Bridge is expected to be installed in Spring 2026

A survey has been launched into proposals for new public artwork under a bridge.

Wychavon District Council said it was a "unique opportunity" for Evesham residents to share their ideas on what they would like to see created under Abbey Bridge, between Crown and Corporation Meadows.

Suggestions from the two-week survey, which will start on Monday, will be used in a workshop where young people will collaborate with an artist to develop designs that "truly reflect the spirit of Evesham".

Councillor Rob Adams said: "These artworks will be a fantastic enhancement to Evesham and provide another reason to explore our wonderful town."

The artwork is expected to be installed in Spring 2026 and is being funded through the district council's share of the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.

Once completed, the street art will enhance the community space, creating a welcoming environment for both residents and visitors alike, the council said.
