Pavement obstructions
Service outline
It is an offence to obstruct public roads, footpaths and pavements. Anyone found deliberately causing an obstruction without either authorisation or a good excuse can be prosecuted. We will enforce the law within Southwark and ensure that all public areas are clear of obstructions.
Please contact us to report any obstructions or hazards on public roads, footpaths or other public areas.
