321: Bus

This is a highly targeted intervention to prompt gum disposal at bus stops

It focuses on insight that revealed ‘transition moments’ while using public transport are a common trigger for littering chewing gum, with bus stops being a particular hot spot. The design aims to mimic bus stop signs using ‘321, bin your gum’ as a memorable phrase as well as the play on being a bus number. Not avalible in Welsh bilingual.
