Landells Road - Cycle hanger consultation have you completed your form?

[thejournalist]

Residents in Landells Road should have received a letter from the council asking for comments/ support or rejection on the proposal to install a static metal cycle hanger outside number 158. The hanger will house 6 cycles and places will be rented on a first come first serve basis. The hanger will take up the space of approx 1/2 car length and will have double yellow lines to one side to allow cyclists to dismount, therefore taking up at least one car space. The hanger will open onto the pavement.

The deadline for comments is early February so whether you support or oppose this hanger please complete the relevant forms and return them so that your comments can be noted.

There are no plans to install a cycle hangar on Landells Road, according to Southwark's website (http://www.southwark.gov.uk/downloads/download/4144/cycle_hangars_proposed_location_maps). Explains why I didn't receive this maybe?

I received a letter, as did several of my neighbours...

There are also plans to install one on Ivanhoe Road.

Don't hold your breath.

We've been waiting nearly two years now for ours on Ulverscroft Road, and nearly a year since the consultation.

There have been five (yes, FIVE) failed attempts at installation since December, because a car was parked in the allotted space each time.

Well - DUH. Don't use an easily moveable barrier with a scrap of paper sellotaped to it to reserve the space then .....

And when it gets moved the first time, think of a more effective solution the second time .....
