| 180445 |  | Bikes hanging off a balcony in Lambeth - location not precisely known. Part of a campaign to raise awareness about the problem of cycle storage: BBC www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-60835416 Clean Cities Campaign cleancitiescampaign.org/ Uses the hashtag: #ThisIsAwkward twitter.com/search | Cycle parking: Event cycleparking |
| 179862 |  | To get onto the contraflow cycleway to the right you'd have to go left to find a dropped kerb. And the sign doesn't mention that this is NCN route 4. | Route sign: Problem routesigns |

| 178870 |  | [Image taken 18.3.09] Bike Hut/Halfords, Old Kent Road, London. [NOTE: No streetview at this location.] This is the cycle parking outside Halfords (which has a Bike Hut). The landlord of the site suggested it would suffice for customers of B&Q despite that store being at the other end of the retail park: #178866 and links. Compare with the racks in: #178871. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 178869 |  | [Image taken 24.5.09] B&Q, Old Kent Road, London. [NOTE: No streetview at this location.] Context: #178866 (and links). Chains have been added to the posts that separate the bike racks from the nearest motor vehicle parking space. I arrived as the owners of the two bikes shown in the background were struggling to secure them to the railings of the trolley park. I asked them if they were using that area because they preferred it or because they did not know there was cycle parking. The latter reason was true. They followed me to the racks and had secured their bikes in no time. There are many reasons people don't use cycle parking provided. Sometimes, as here, it is because racks are provided but not signposted and not visible. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 178868 |  | [Image taken 8.4.09] B&Q, Old Kent Road, London. [NOTE: No streetview at this location.] Context: #178866 (and links). This image shows how far the bike racks at B & Q are from the entrance to the store. Compare these with the situation in Cambridge: #178871. And - York provision installed in May 2022 - # They are 'beyond' the entrance. To cycle to them you would need to go through the car park - not a nice proposition. Plus there is no sign alerting people to their existence or pointing to them so I wonder how many people will see them. Further, if you are buying large or heavy items and you need a trolley, because the racks are so far from the entrance and the trolley park - you can't use those shown in the image, the ones to use are on the far side of the entrance - you have to leave your shopping and/or bags unattended at your bike while you return the trolley. I can't load up my bike while locked as I have to carry the locks in my pannier so I had to leave all items and my pannier on the ground next to my (locked) bike. By chance, I was here at a very quiet time so I had a clear view of my bike, pannier and purchases most of the time, however I did still worry I might have seen the last of them. When busy, this area will be crowded and there will be no line of sight. It is an impractical and, I feel, dangerous (because cyclists will need to walk such a distance and several times among moving vehicles in what is very limited space when the store is busy), place to locate the racks. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 178867 |  | [Image taken 8.4.09] B&Q, Old Kent Road, London. [NOTE: No streetview at this location.] Context: #178866 (and links). I was pleased to see the spaces between the uprights in the long-campaigned for racks at B&Q are quite far apart. I was able to get into the space and load up my bike. It would be tighter if there were another bike on the next upright but I'm not complaining about this aspect at least. | Cycle parking: Good practice cycleparking |
| 178866 |  | [Image taken 8.4.09] B&Q, Old Kent Road, London. [NOTE: No streetview at this location.] Since 19 June 2006 I've been lobbying B & Q and the managing agents of the site to get cycle parking put in outside B&Q. There's a clear need - there was always at least one other bike, usually several, attached to the railings surrounding the trolley area. Today, a nice surprise - cycle parking! There are two lots of 'toast racks' - one with 3 uprights, accommodating 6 bikes, one with 2, accommodating 4 bikes. However, had I approached from the road entrance I wouldn't have seen the racks. There are no signs and they are a long way from the entrance. It's not all bad news though. The image shows the existence of posts which are presumably intended to protect the bikes from motor vehicles while they are being parked or making some other manoeuvre next to the racks. Other images this B&Q: #178867, #178868, #178869. Comparison with an example of good practice at the B&Q in Cambridge: #178871. Image of unusable racks at the nearby Bike Hut: #178870. | Cycle parking: Good practice cycleparking |

| 178505 |  | About 100m of Great Maze Street is strictly pedestrian-only - it's still a very useful route to and from London Bridge station (and of course The Shard). | General sign/notice: Infrastructure signs |

| 175462 |  | [Image taken 3 November 2021] Mill Street, London SE1. Cycles come in all shapes and sizes and it’s important to give people convenient places to park them. It’s nice to see these specific areas for cargo and adapted cycles in Southwark. See also: #175470, #175471. | Cycle parking: Good practice cycleparking |
| 172350 |  | We’ve just moved to the area and My wife and I both need bike storage so we can use our bikes to get to work. I am sure there are many others who are on the waiting lists for bike storage nearby | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 171426 |  | I would like a bike hangar, all of the available bike storage is taken - I have joined a waiting list | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 171159 |  | Although there are already a number of hangars in the street and nearby, they are all full with long waiting lists. Clearly demand is outstripping supply. My daughter currently has to carry her bike every day to a first floor flat, past a neighbour who complains incessantly about noise. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 171158 |  | See previous application for Grove Hill Road, SE5 8DF | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 171157 |  | All nearest secure bike hangars are full with waiting lists. Lots of LTN locally would be reinforced if people could park bikes safely. Terraced houses make this difficult and it's a high crime area with lots of bike thefts. I suggest a second bike hangar in Ivanhoe Road near Coplestone Passage | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 170089 |  | There's a lot of space here and it would accommodate local families, residents and workers. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 170067 |  | Make it a loop hangar - a lot of bicycles in the area get vandalised | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 168696 |  | In the car parking area behind No's 32-42 Tranton Road there are always empty parking spaces. There is also plenty of space around off the street - please use that area for a few of the loop cycle hangars - i would happily rent 3 or 4 spaces straight away. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 168257 |  | I've recently sold my car and so theoretically there's now space outside my property (54a Heber Road) for a bike shed to hold up to 6 bikes. Most of the houses on my street have no garden access, shared entrances and narrow hallways. The waiting list for other sheds in this area is over subscribed and so there's an obvious demand for more storage space. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |

| 167671 |  | Another helpful cycle lane [since modified] | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 166938 |  | The speed limit here is 20mph but drivers go much faster. Suggest a speed camera is erected. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 166633 |  | Add cycle lane on this busy road between East Dulwich and Herne Hill | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 166519 |  | There are lots of spare car parking space and lots of people want a bike hangar, there is only one nearby and it's full | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |

| 165849 |  | The community supports me | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 165791 |  | I agree with the first comment - we have many cyclists who live in our street, and no storage. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 165563 |  | Bike hangar for use by significant number of cycle commuters | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 165314 |  | Narrow pavement | Track: Problem track |
| 163719 |  | There is no cycle parking on the street or on the estate. All houses have small front gardens that wouldn't fit bikes, and people just lock bikes to lamposts. Also, all the houses are flats or half houses so they all share hallways and cannot store bikes there. We need a cycle hanger at each end of Kinsale Road - to provide secure, weather-protected cycle storage. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 161888 |  | There is no secure cycle parking available for Whorlton Road, despite a lot of demand for this. The road has also recently become a cul-de-sac so there is now more opportunity to install this parking. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 161478 |  | There are 6 flats in my building and each would love to have access to safe cycling storage | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 161256 |  | All local cycle pods hangers are full - I am cycling resident in Peabody building, storage here would serve people like my partner and me and many others. Clearly, demand is high for these spaces - please create more. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 160178 |  | There is no secure cycle available hangar in the vicinity. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 159190 |  | All nearby Cycle storage schemes are fully occupied. Southwark have implemented lots of new quietways for cyclists but have not increased storage. We are a household of three adults who would all like to cycle but nowhere to store our bikes. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 158972 |  | Secure bike storage needed as apartments have none | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 157977 |  | For the residents of Renforth Street Estate - a lot of cars park here, and this congestion could be eased by a number of bike spaces. As it's a cul de sac, bikes are often stolen from outside and, therefore, many residents who would like to bike cannot. Ours has been stolen, or had parts of it stolen on a number of occasions | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 156820 |  | Many residents in Alaska Buildings and nearby buildings don't have any secure cycle parking. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 156341 |  | There is no bike hangar on Rossetti Road, Stubbs Drive. With the number of residents cycling from those streets, we will have 6 spaces taken. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 155638 |  | No public cycle parking nearby and no private either | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 155188 |  | 1 x Cyclehoop bike hangar needed for 6 bikes | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 154878 |  | [Secure cycle parking requested, presumably] My housemate and I will both use it, as will our downstairs neighbour | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 154108 |  | Cycle parking on the TfL river service | Cycle parking: Good practice cycleparking |
| 154059 |  | There are no cycle hoops yet on this street, whereas most of the neighbouring streets have them | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 154054 |  | A lot of people on Holmdene Avenue would like bike storage which would ease pressure on driving/owning car | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 154053 |  | There are lots of neighbours on the street who would like on street parking (e.g. cycle hoop hangars) as the houses/flats aren't conducive to bike storage. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 153938 |  | There are no secure bike hangers or lockers in the area. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 153770 |  | I am a resident of Cross Court, Denmark Hill Estate, and there is no public cycle stands or anywhere to keep our bikes inside the flat. The Cyclehoop locker is full. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 153731 |  | Having cycle stands at this location would incentivate cycling for local residents, and help the council keep this pavement clear of rubbish. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 153725 |  | There are hundreds of residents in this square and loads of space to add secure cycle parking. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 153693 |  | We request a bike Hangar for 6 bikes be inserted here given the high volume of residents who cycle, and the lack of secure off-street parking that is available to them. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 153514 |  | Several residents along Wood Vale live in small flats and have nowhere to store their bikes. A bikehanger would allow us to securely store and regularly use our bikes. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 153492 |  | Would benefit the whole estate and is well suited due to proximity to the quiet route. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 153322 |  | Would be great to have hangars to store bikes as is difficult in shared accomodation | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 153303 |  | 162 Underhill Road there are 6 of us who would use a bike hangar. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 153102 |  | We have a lot of bikes on our street and nowhere to keep them. Leaving them outside feels unsafe in the area. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 152801 |  | With new parking restrictions and permits for residents, a safer and more secure place to lock bikes would be extremely helpful. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 152749 |  | Cars speed down Crofton road, and this area results in very limited visibility. There is a risk of collisions with pedestrians and cyclists. Ideas include banning on street parking on this area for visibility, making the whole area an LTN, | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 152651 |  | There are no cycle hangers for several roads and all nearby are oversubscribed. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 152556 |  | With the road closed one end and CPZ finally operational the road has more space for cycle storage including bike hangars. This will help residents and commuters for East Dulwich station. Secure storage would be better. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 152258 |  | We're currently campaigning to get more bike hangars on our street. We've done a survey on the street and of those who have responded, 100% are positive and there is extremely high demand for more space (most of us have been on waiting lists for cyclehangar spaces for over a year) Our flat are all tiny and we have no space to keep our bikes - and prevalence of bikes is increasing in these coronavirus times! | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 152206 |  | There are a lot of young people and families on the street and given the lockdown and fact that everyone is commuting via bike or cycling recreationally, a bike hanger or lockers on the square would be much needed and used. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 151832 |  | Cars make school drop-off and pick -up very dangerous here. The road should be for cyclists and pedestrians only at these times. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 151831 |  | Cars are very dangerous on this road at school drop off and pick up. Motorised vehicles should be banned at these times. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 151624 |  | There is already a bike storage hanger for 10 bikes, but there is a long waiting list, with 5 people already on it. It's a residential area so I'm sure it will get used. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 151463 |  | Install a bike hanger to secure park up to 6 bikes | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 151371 |  | 1 x hanger needed for 2-4 cycles on Keston Road, SE15 4JB | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 151238 |  | Aylesbury Road SE17 is has some enclosed bike hangars but they are full capacity so more are needed as well as visitor parking in the form of Sheffield stands | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 151208 |  | 1 above refers to 1 x bike hangar = 6 spaces. The existing bike hangar on Lyndhurst Grove is full and lots more people are cycling now. The houses on this road all have steps up and down and few have garden access making it difficult for people to safely store bikes in their own homes. There is plenty of car parking space so it would make sense to use 1 of these spaces to provide additional secure bicycle parking. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 151169 |  | Shenley Road and surrounding roads house many residents who have bikes. We have 2 in my flat and 3 in the flat upstairs, and our immediate neighbours also have multiple cyclists in each property. We have no rear access so on street safe parking is needed. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 151157 |  | • our shared building has shown interest in a Bikehangar as there aren’t any available spaces nearby, • especially on the south side of Grove Park, SE5, are a large number of flats and estates without outdoor space to park their bikes • people would cycle more if they would have an option where to keep their bikes. We see a lot of new electric car chargers on the road, which is good, but not everyone can afford an electric car • we think that outside of 16 Grove Park could work nicely as there is a large multi-occupation building there with many bike-owning residents who are in need of storage. Looking forward to your reply. Best regards, John O'Rourke | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |

| 151084 |  | Please add bike storage options in and around Thorburn Sq. (SE15QF). As can be seen in the cyclehoop rental map (cyclehoop.force.com/RentalsCommunity/resultsmap), the entire area from Dunton Rd to Raymouth Rd between Southwark Park Rd and Lynton Rd is completely underserved with no bike storage options. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 150661 |  | We have just moved into a first floor flat (no garden) and would like to park our three bikes securely on our street; Oglander Road SE15 4EN. A bike hangar would be really helpful and useful to us. All bike hangars around us are full and we are on waiting lists. An additional one on Oglander Road near number 74 would be a really welcome addition. Thanking you in advance for any help and support you are able to offer us, Caroline, Gary and Monty. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 150541 |  | Space for a cyclehoop bike hanger. The street has a lot of driveway parking, but no provision for cycle storage for upstairs flats. I have had verbal support for some residents and will seek signatures. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 150460 |  | There is no space to leave bikes in the short front yards, and no cycle storage on the street for dozens of bloxms. Hangars please! | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 150222 |  | The bike hangar location should be on the corner of Holmdene Avenue and Herne Hill. There is a widened area of pavement here or it could occupy one parking space on the corner, which is located behind a bollard which adds extra safety/protection (e.g. from cars). We would like a bike hangar that accommodates a minimum of 6 bikes. The reason is that a number of apartments in this area are having to store bikes in corridors and this breaks fire regulations, particularly post-Grenfell. We had a fire risk assessment done recently and this was highlighted as a high risk in communal corridors in the event of fire. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 150061 |  | Lots of offices around here and insufficient secure cycle parking. The cycle hoop down the road is full. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
