Milford Street Bridge is a large flyover, which carries the Salisbury’s ring-road (A36). It was built in the early 1970s. In 2010 The Milford Street Bridge Project http://www.milfordstreetbridgeproject.org.uk/index.php , a community heritage and arts project based in Salisbury, was granted permission to paint a mural on one of its bare concrete walls. The mural, painted on the southern wall of the bridge in 2011 , shows buildings and people from the time before the ring road was constructed. A second mural (Image]) was painted on the Northern Wall in 2012, to commemorate the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee. More photographs of the individual buildings and people in the mural can be seen at http://www.milfordstreetbridgeproject.org.uk/content/category/the-murals/the-milford-street-bridge-mural (Milford Street Bridge Project).
