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?

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 .....

    • Another recommendation for Maurice Hinds! He installed a new handbasin in my small bathroom, and did a lovely job.  I would absolutely recommend Maurice for plumbing work.  He is very helpful, friendly and did a tidy and efficient job, and his work is reasonably priced. 
    • Sure. He is ideological driven on many things. He was the person that defended the blanket CPZ policy because he believed that 'if you asked most people in southwark if all parking should be paid for, most would say yes'. A completely unfounded belief not backed by any evidence. In the real world, that policy caused significant local electoral damage for some councillors. I personally see his disillusion with the Labour Party as one of his idealism vs the reality of governance. He will probably be much happier with the Greens.
    • Arguably, as regards local needs for free(er) flowing traffic and some acknowledgement of expressed wishes he hasn't been. The 'active travel' and particularly the cycling lobby seems to have got far more of his attention than others. In that aspect, at least he would seem to be far more likely to be happy amongst the avowedly private-car hating Greens. A perfectly reasonable stance, of course, but one which certainly doesn't qualify as 'arguing for local needs'. He hasn't, equally, been very obviously supportive of those, his direct constituents I believe, who have been less than enthusiastic about Gala.
