A new bespoke mural has been unveiled at Supertram’s depot, creating a more welcoming space for colleagues, visitors and contractors while celebrating our connection to Sheffield and South Yorkshire.

Supertram commissioned local Sheffield artist Luke Horton to create the mural, working closely with colleagues to bring together the people, values, engineering expertise and heritage that make up our depot team.

The mural features a range of recognisable Sheffield and Supertram references, including tram designs from the past, present and future, alongside local landmarks and the values that are important to our engineering family.

Nikolas Dobbs, Head of Engineering at Supertram, said: “We wanted the mural to represent our engineering family at the depot and reflect the values across cleaning, facilities, engineering, infrastructure, rolling stock, projects and stores.”

“Luke took our ideas and turned them into a really striking visualisation. It also links with artwork he’s created across the city.”
