I met with representatives of Streetcare and BT this morning to come up with a plan to tackle the graffiti on the green boxes and phone boxes.
This tends to be some of the longest-standing graffiti in the town and we do need to improve how quickly it is dealt with.
The manager from BT is the head of their UK estates, and having seen the problem, was very motivated to help.
Next steps are to compile a list of all the green boxes, phone boxes and related property in Reading for BT, while Streetcare will put together a cost estimate. Hopefully we should be able to target sufficient resources such that the problem can be greatly improved (even if total elimination might never be possible).
I will be reporting back to the Redlands NAG on this issue on Thursday
