Kiems is a good choice and although pigment removes some of the other “painted” issues.

This doesn't appear to be "owned" by the energy of a surrounding community.
Paint is an option, but lightfastness of colors in such an exposed site could be problematic. Consider using a lower chroma color scheme to just pop it slightly out of the surroundings.
Ceramic tile/mosaic would be long-lasting but moves the cost jumps quickly.
The areas show unidentifiable staining/draining over the walls. Figure out what's causing that and whether it can be prevented.
Solar panels w led lights could be cool.

Dear Fellow Art Coordinators,
As noted below, I’ve been asked to meet with a neighborhood to help come up with ideas to beautify an existing bridge rail owned by the City. I’ve alerted our Engineering, Transportation and Public Works staff about this project. I have some thoughts, but wondered if any of you have worked on a project like this and used anything but paint. If so, please send photos.
Thanks!

Good Morning Tammy
The Westchester PID board is considering hiring an artist to decorate the bridge shown below, located on Polo Road between Carrier and Bardin. They had been considering adding brick/stone facing to it, but that would add about 50 tons of weight to the bridge. They love the traffic signal box art and the I-30 intersection artwork. Could you give the board some direction for this project?
The walls are 150’ long and 4’ tall and are shown below.
