More art and lighting will bring fresh life to 'run-down' lane
The Journal
|May 13, 2025
FRESH life and colour are set to be brought to an “underused and run-down” part of Newcastle city centre through a new regeneration vision.
-
A project installing vibrant artwork on city streets plagued by rubbish and anti-social behaviour is set to be extended over the next 12 months. The Creative Central NCL scheme led to the launch of a new ‘urban art gallery’ to brighten up Forth Lane last year, in an effort to improve public safety in the historic alleyway.
It has now been confirmed that a further £300,000 will be pumped into the project for a second stage of development. Phase two of the improvements will include more artwork and “much-needed” lighting being installed on Forth Lane, which connects Grainger Street to Pink Lane's collection of popular bars, pubs, and other local businesses.
