Denmark Hill safe early in the morning?


Salta

Recommended Posts

I need to get to Luton airport early Friday morning and am looking at getting the first train out of Denmark Hill - 5:07am!!


I'm a bit worried about the safety at that time in the morning as a woman on my own, there will obviously be no staff around. Does anyone have experience of using the station at those times? Are there many people?


Thanks in advance for your advice.

I got an early train (about 5.30am I think) from Denmark Hill back in December. I got to the station stupid early and hung about by the barriers for a while before going down on to the platform. As you say, no staff, but I reassured myself slightly by thinking about how many security cameras there must be. I was the first one there but felt better when a couple of other passengers arrived on the platform, by the time my train came there were I think 3 or 4 of us waiting, no chat of course but a v slight acknowledgement from one or two. I'd do it again if I had to, probably safer actually at the station than walking along the street at that hour. Safe journey! Annie

    • You can request for them to come and collect your full bins again https://forms.southwark.gov.uk/ShowForm.asp?fm_fid=1879 They usually come on whatever day your rubbish/recycling collection day is. If you aren't going to be in, leave them somewhere that they can find it. If you don't need replacements, just leave a note on the full ones that a replacement isn't needed.  They usually come quite early, so it's better to leave them outside if you can. 
    • Just wondering- what were they arrested for? If you remember 
    • Cyclists certainly do have a bit of a perception problem at the moment and when I cycle I see a lot of examples of arrogance and ignorance that gives all cyclists a bad name - it does seem that many cyclists have caught the entitlement bug many drivers seem to have.
    • But Spartacus didn't mention the significant amounts of land being used for car storage - that was most definitely you.   And I am afraid when you apply your same measure to other transport uses (like cycleways and cycle lanes - Malumbu is your stat on the 360 kms of cycle network cycleways or cycle lanes?) then it most definitely is relevant for the debate.   Should we assume then that if all this ULEZ money and government bailout money is being poured into TFL then the system is, financially at least, broken or is it a case that the money is being mis-spent (like the DV junction project)?
