‘The Blackhorse Road station art project enhanced and complimented the £900,000 station improvements completed in 2018, which was funded jointly by Transport for London and the Greater London Authority, working with Waltham Forest Council. The new artwork and improvements integrate with the wider improvements to the area including the improvements to the Standard Junction, route along Forest Road and, the new housing and commercial developments in the Blackhorse Lane area and new links to the Walthamstow Wetlands.’

‘The roundels are beautiful and it is a great legacy to have involved so many people of all ages and abilities especially as this project took place over several Covid Lockdowns. Pupils from Willowfield Secondary and Winns Primary Schools made tiles, along with station staff, their families and lots of local residents. The mosaics look great and really finish off the station – fantastic work: so much time, care and attention to detail.’
