Southwark have installed some ground anchors in Tanner St and are asking for opinions. Here's a link to the survey.

I'd like to see these across the borough and even be able to request locations for them to be installed.

I have just applied for a Cleaner Greener Safer Award, BoosBoss, for the already existing motorcycle parking bays, where we live, to have rails installed along them so motorcycles can be safely secured with D-locks or chains. Just thought you would like to know :)


@RobertF Ground anchors are not really good if you only have D-locks. I only have D-Locks.


I raised with the ED Councillor the fact that the really useful bike park on North Cross Road which has a rail for chains and DLocks, is unavailable for bikers on Saturdays when the market is on, and to my knowledge there are no other bike parks near by. Thanks for the link. Shall complete it.

You would not believe how much effort has gone into getting Southwark Council to try these.


Good luck with your CGS bid PeckhamRose.


And if anyone would like a motorbike ground anchor where they live in East Dulwich ping me an email with your address and I'll get the ball rolling to make this happen for you.

    • I'm reviving this thread in order to have a moan. Dive. Deep dive. I'm not sure why, but recently these words seem to be in everything I read,  especially online, and I am finding them REALLY ANNOYING. Why not just say, I'm finding out more about this, or,  now I am going to tell you much more about this? AAAARGH. (It's also annoying that the local swimming pool isn't deep enough to dive, but that's a totally different issue.)

    • We have a large length of marine rope that you are welcome to have. It has been outside so is wet and heavy. Photo attached. Chris 
    • What do you need a solicitor for? What advice do you/they need? Only the courts or the tenants can end a tenancy, the landlord can only require possession. If it is a section 21 that is a "no fault" eviction,  meaning the landlord simply wants their property back vacant. If it is a section 8 it means the landlord requires possession because of rent arrears or some other kind of breach of the tenancy agreement. If there is no notice then it is potentially an illegal eviction. TBH the council are probably likely to advise they stay put until the courts evict them, but that could result in them being allocated emergency accomodation - which could be outside of Southwark and possibly a hotel room or hostel.  As you will be very much aware council housing is rarer than hens teeth in inner London so I would advise this family not to pin thejr hopes on that, they would better off trying to find somewhere more stable to rent privately.
