Graffiti-Deterrent Bus Shelters to Be Installed
Major traffic arteries in South Gate will soon feature 10 graffiti-deterrent bus shelters.
The shelters, built with mesh benches, will provide taggers minimal surfaces to disfigure.
Intersections along Long Beach Boulevard, Atlantic Boulevard and Garfield Avenue will be fitted with roofed shelters, benches, trash receptacles and solar lighting.
The project, scheduled for completion next year, is funded with $80,000 in city money and a $20,000 grant from the Metropolitan Transportation Authority.
