Department for Infrastructure and Transport (DIT) is prepared to consider the installation of artwork within the road reserve provided that it can be designed and located so as not to adversely affect the safety of all road users; that is pedestrians, cyclists and motorists (including motor cyclists).
Artwork should not create a significant distraction to motorists or pose a physical obstruction to traffic and pedestrian movement or to the sight-lines of road users.
The preference is for artwork to not be internally illuminated or to have flashing lights. Any external lighting must be of an intensity that does not cause an overspill nuisance to motorists or adjacent property occupiers or cause a distraction to motorist on adjacent public roads.
The artwork should not have elements that are likely to cause a vehicle to be launched or to be speared.
