Bus shelter inspires artists

A group of artists, inspired by a mysterious designer who made a bus shelter into a cosy room last year, is transforming 10 bus stops in Gloucestershire.

Commissioned by Brimscombe and Thrupp Parish Council, Studio 18 is converting the shelters into art installations.

Each bus stop on London Road, Stroud, has a theme inspired either by its locality or global issues.

The council said the project came about following the undercover makeover of a bus shelter near Brewery Lane.
