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.

    • Just last week I received cheques from NS&I. I wasn't given the option of bank transfer for the particular transaction. My nearest option for a parcel pick up point was the post office! The only cash point this week was the post office as the coop ATM was broken.   Many people of whatever age are totally tech savvy but still need face to face or inside banking and post office services for certain things, not least taking out cash without the worry of being mugged at the cash point.    It's all about big business saving money at the expense of the little people who, for whatever reason, still want or need face to face service.   At least when the next banking crisis hits there won't be anywhere to queue to try and demand your money back so that'll keep the pavements clear.      
    • I think it was more amazement that anyone uses cheques on a large enough scale anymore for it to be an issue.    Are cheque books even issued to customers by banks anymore? That said government institutions seem to be one of the last bastions of this - the last cheque I think I received was a tax rebate in 2016 from HMRC.  It was very irritating.
    • I know you have had a couple of rather condescending replies, advising you to get to grips with technology and live in the modern world. I sympathise with you. I think some of us should try to be a bit more empathetic and acknowledge not everyone is a technophile. Try to see things from a perspective that is not just our own. Also, why give the banking sector carte blanche to remove any sort of human/public facing role. Is this really what we want?
