From a time-frame perspective, the rainbow crosswalk that Cambridge declined to do last year was expected to last 7 - 10 years. It seems reasonable to expect this artwork could last that long as well.

There's also a crosswalk on Lancaster beside Suddaby school that was out in in 2016 and it's holding up. Not as bright as it was when first installed, but traffic and plows haven't destroyed it.
