Urban Rangers hit the streets of Bankside

Residents and businesses in the Bankside area are benefiting from a pilot scheme being operated by Southwark Council to provide a quick response service for environmental problems involving refuse collection, graffiti, parks, flowerbeds, highways and community safety. The Urban Rangers, on the streets between 8am and 7pm on weekdays and 10am and 6pm at weekends, are equipped with a range of tools including digital cameras to record problems and leaflets to deal with frequently asked questions.
