Logan City Council have decided to refurbish the “much-loved” memorial murals along Anzac Avenue at Hillcrest ahead of Remembrance Day on Saturday 11 November.
The nine artworks, which depict multiple wars, were installed in 2018 and have suffered some wear and tear over the years.
Council’s mural artists have recently repaired the murals and replaced them with screen printed versions to ensure their continuation.
The murals are installed on the retaining wall for the Mt Lindesay Highway from the intersection of Silvertop St and Anzac Ave, up Anzac Ave to the Greenbank Services Club.
Local councillor Tim Frazer said he was proud to support the revival of these works from his divisional funding.
“The murals are very powerful and stand as a memorial to Australia’s wartime involvement from the Boer War to Afghanistan,” Cr Frazer said.
“They are an important part of our local community and remind us of all those who served and sacrificed in different wars and conflicts.”
Greenbank RSL Sub Branch President Stewart Rae thanked council for its work on the mural.
“Given its proximity to our club, the mural is something which is cherished by our members and visitors, and we are happy to see it refreshed as our community observes Remembrance Day,” Mr Rae said.
