Southwark Cyclist Bob Eva will be representing the community in a mutual protection society with PCSO Kevin Phillips. The only people angry about CSW are motorists. The community representation (Bob) shows that people without cars care about speeding and Kevin in full police uniform answers the charge that "if speeding mattered the police would do […]
Speedwatch volunteer and Southwark Cyclist Bob Eva will be holding the speedgun and PCSO Kevin Phillips will be writing down the numbers at or near the Croxted Road junction with the South Circular. They get a lot of appreciative comment from the public at this spot which is enjoyed by all except speeding drivers. You […]
Salter Road gets a lot of attention from the Community Speedwatch teams. That's because speeding drivers along here have a habit of handing out frights. Werner, who leads some of our Healthy Rides and Bank Holiday specials, doesn't appreciate frights. He likes to get even. The result is a lot of speed measurement on Salter […]
Southwark Cyclist Bob Eva will be holding the speedgun and PCSO Kevin Phillips will be writing down the registration numbers on Dog Kennel Hill near the junction with Quorn Road. Dog Kennel Hill does (probably) have a real connection with dogs in that Prince George of Denmark had kennels for his hounds here. However, there is also a theory that an […]
Southwark Cyclists volunteer, Werner, will be holding the speedgun on Salter Road between 11am and 1pm. This is the first time back on the road for Speedwatch for more than five months.

Representing the police we have PCSO Kevin Phillips, new father and Welshman, loves his volunteers and hates speeders. Representing the community, a Southwark Cyclist volunteer holding the speed gun. Not just us I should explain: councillors, concerned residents and a cross-section […]
Southwark Cyclists' volunteer Werner will be wielding the speedgun on Salter Road in SE1. Numbers on the road have risen as people have been frightened off the buses and tubes and aggro has increased at the same time. Drivers, like all of us, have personal fears and interrupted private lives. Neither makes them safer. You […]
Southwark Cyclists' volunteer Sally Eva will be wielding the speedgun and PCSO Kevin Phillips will be taking the numbers of offending vehicles. These sessions are organised by the Met in collaboration with TfL. TfL do the funding and the volunteers and the Met do the doing. Some of the speeds they find are rather remarkable […]
Southwark Cyclists' volunteer, Werner will be pointing his speed gun at motorists in SE16. The speed limit is 20mph guys. It may be a wide and empty road but that doesn't mean you can make up your own rules. The guy in charge is PCSO Kevin Phillips who does the organising and provides protective muscle […]
TfL and the Met are studying the Speedwatch stats and trying to make patterns with them. So this Speedwatch will be in a location only previously done at the weekend. At the weekend it catches loads of drivers, particularly cabbies. The aim is to see whether it is better or worse when the tradesmens' vans […]
