S3.3 Level of Graffiti
Both Graffiti itself and any visible marks where it has been removed should be considered. Include stickers as Graffiti. The fixtures around the Ticket Hall ( vending machines, photo booths and seats ) are often 'targets' for Graffiti, and should be checked.

Find the WORST AREA ( 1 square metre - about the size of a Tube Map poster ) of the Ticket Hall. Estimate how many A5 areas are needed to cover up all the Graffiti. This booklet ( when closed ) is an A5 area. Estimate how many booklets you would need to cover up all the Graffiti in the worst area.

IF THERE IS NO GRAFFITI, SCORE '10'




No Graffiti whatsoever and no marks where previously present
