Today was the opening of Colourway, a project that has transformed the Plumstead overpass with painted murals, ceramic walls and staircase, new flooring, lighting and events support. I worked on this with Adams & Sutherland, Make:Good, & Rumi Bose for RBG, Peabody & Berkeley

But a guerrilla bee is fighting to stop it.

Sad news to report that the winter sculpture park at the end of the Ridgeway has had to close due to vandalism and arson. @32Gallery instagram.com/p/DIcLsNeT4DJ/…
If any @RidgewayUsers has any information that could help with the investigations into who perpetrated these acts, please report it to the police. Help to make the Ridgeway and old golf course a safe and beautiful place for everyone to enjoy 🙏💗
This week, north side of the Ridgeway at the Plumstead end being cleared, probably to put in a new ramp allowing residents from new Lombard Square development to easily get to Plumstead High Street.
