Lambeth Noise Control

newcombe09 — Wed, 13 Jan 2010 16:25:04 +0000

There aren’t many things that are more downright annoying than a neighbour sending you up the wall with noise. To tackle this, back in November, Lambeth council expanded its noise patrol service so that it now operates much longer hours than before.

As the Lambeth website outlines, excessive noise is defined as a disturbance that impacts on any resident’s quality of life. Specifically this can be:

loud music, TV or radio

persistent shouting, banging or other unreasonable domestic noise

parties or other entertainment

pubs, clubs and entertainment venues

building and DIY work at unreasonable times of the day

constant dog barking

car and burglar alarms.

If you’re being upset by any of these problems, then you can call the 9am to 5pm service on 020 7926 6111 or the rapid response service which is open at the below times:

Monday to Thursday evenings: 5pm to 3am

Friday evenings: 5pm to 5am

Saturday: 2pm to 5am

Sunday: 2pm to 3am

Lambeth grit

newcombe09 — Mon, 11 Jan 2010 18:11:33 +0000

Firstly, apologies for the lame headline, but it’s been a long day …

The Streatham Guardian has just put up a decent write up about the council’s gritting effort across Lambeth and has the reassuring message that we aren’t about to run out of that all important grit as the council has enough resources to see us through the cold snap. This is thankfully coming to end very soon, but if you want updates from the local area have a look at our page from the weekend.

Remember if you have any comments about how services have operated during the cold weather or suggestions on how things could be improved, please contact your Clapham Town councillors below.

Clapham and Lambeth snow update

newcombe09 — Sat, 09 Jan 2010 11:20:29 +0000

A lot of you have been logging on to our snow updates, so here is a further update on how everything is looking out there in Lambeth and Clapham.

The council’s website has once again been updated with news on services across the borough – this link outlines the state of play yesterday, but is still fairly accurate. Keep monitoring the main page for further updates as well as TFL’s main site for news about the transport network across the captial – it also has a handy five day weather forecast. The BBC, as ever, is also running a pretty effective weather and news page on the big freeze, which alas is predicting some sharp icy winds and snow over the next 48 hours.

If you have any comment or views on how services are working – or any urgent issues – please contact your local Clapham Town Labour councillors:

Clapham snow update

newcombe09 — Wed, 23 Dec 2009 10:39:54 +0000

It’s pretty cold and somewhat snowy out there in Clapham Old Town at the moment – yours truly has already been doused in snow after misjudging a couple of steps on Victoria Rise …

If you do have to venture out today then the council’s website has a service update with links to London Transport and the Met Office. You can also call the council on 020 7926 1000 for further info about local services.
