Tagging is an interesting subject actually, especially considering street art is something the city seems to be pretty known for. I think it can actually add value in terms of visitors by embracing it (within reason of course!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Funky_Gibbon   42 #15 Posted August 24, 2019 Fewer people moaning about the council ad infinitum and trying to engineer ways to get around the fact that the minority parties they support don't currently receive enough votes take over power.  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I like true street art, I see it as a completely different thing to the illegible untidy tagging that is everywhere around us these days.

hauxwell   243 #20 Posted August 24, 2019 The FreeBee bus was handy to get you round the city centre, shame it was scrapped. It would be nice to see it brought back, but I can’t see that happening.  I use to call the city centre when I lived in Sheffield, now I miss it and Hillsborough, I appreciate it now when I come to visit. I prefer it to Newcastle Centre, but having said that I do love the Tyne Bridges up here, to sit on the Quayside with a coffee and just admire the ingenuity and diversity of the lovely bridges is something I will never get tired of.  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Reduce the amount of buses running would reduce the amount of dead space being run! People won't give up their cars fir buses, fact so support and embrace the car users Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
