NI Water has transformed Luke's Point Pumping Station in Bangor with a new mural.

The site was improved with artwork in order to combat continuing graffiti incidents.

It promotes a serious theme with the "Refill Free, Clean the Sea" strapline which encourages people to refill their re-usable bottles and help reduce single use plastics which are harming the environment.

Mark Consiglia, Wastewater Area Manager for NI Water said: "Graffiti incidents over the last few years had been occurring on a regular basis and despite repainting the walls on several occasions, vandalism at this site continued.

"NI Water decided to commission a piece of artwork to improve the surrounding walls of the station, which highlights local landmarks, as well as the mighty Poseidon who challenges us to 'Refill free, Clean the Sea!' The mural greatly improves the appearance of the station and enhances the beauty of the local area.

"This pumping station is essential to the local sewerage infrastructure and we at NI Water want to work with the local community to maintain this beautiful coastal area. We hope the local community will enjoy the mural for many years to come."
