Make our underpass welcoming once more!

Repaint/refurbish the underpass adjacent to Thetford bus station and The Priory from its current appalling condition.

Why is this important?

Recently, the underpass adjacent to Thetford bus station was cleared of (quite artistic) graffiti. While this was done with the best of intentions the resultant mess is awful and blights the approach to the bus station and the town centre for the many people who use it every day. It is also immediately adjacent to The Priory - one of Thetford's main historical attractions - and gives a very bad impression to visitors and tourists alike.

Thetford, regrettably, gets a lot of bad press - most of which is totally unjustified. Leaving the underpass in its current state only reinforces the thoughts of many who see it as run down and tired.

The location of the underpass gives an ideal opportunity to present the town in a good light to a significant number of people and the walls could be repainted based on a number of local themes - The Brecks, Dad's Army, transportation etc.
