The art was chosen from submissions by local artists in Jacksonville as a part of the JTA‘s public art initiative, as well as the Northwest Jacksonville Corridor Improvements through JTA’s MobilityWorks2.0 program.
The improvements will help enhance over 111 bus stops by increasing safety and amenities, such as ADA upgrades and real-time digital information for connecting stops.
“We are thrilled to introduce community residents to these inspiring works created by local artists and chosen with the help of the people who will enjoy it every day,” said JTA CEO Nathaniel P. Ford. “These works of art reflect the unique identity of this community and will be an enduring part of its cultural landscape for years to come.”
