Fourteen new banners have been installed on the Mandurah Bridge to celebrate the region's flora, fauna and marine environment.
The banners have been designed by local artists, Ricky Gibson, Lisa Payton, Paul Fleetham and Debra Scidone.
Ms Payton said having her work on three of the banners has special significance as her grandfather was involved in building the previous bridge.
“It truly is an honour and my grandad would be very proud,” Ms Payton said.
The new banners will replace the banners designed by another local artist, Emma Blyth.
Her banners will be rotated with the new ones.
“The City is keen to provide real employment opportunities for our artists and the banners are a great way for us to financially support talented locals and showcase their work,” Mayor Rhys Williams said.
“Talking to our community prior to and during the bridge redevelopment, we know that public art is really important. It’s a way for us to celebrate and reflect on what is unique or special to us, and helps us connect with this place and with each other."
Work is already underway on special banners for Christmas in Mandurah, which kicks off on November 30.
