The Southwark Civic Awards celebrate our roots as `London's most historic borough` by conferring the liberties of the three metropolitan boroughs from which The London Borough of Southwark was formed in 1965 - Bermondsey,Camberwell and Southwark.
We also want to recognise exceptional contributions to civic, community or family life by individuals, businesses, projects or organisations in the geographical areas they once covered.
Those nominated for one of these awards may have given a lifetime or many years of service, or made an exceptional contribution to civic and community life in the previous year [2017]
Apart from the rarely- conferred Honorary Freedom of Southwark, the Southwark Civic Awards are the most prestigious the council can make, with only a handful of citizens awarded an honour each year.
The awards are split into several categories, with a `Liberty` award for each of the old metropolitan boroughs, as well as the Young Citizen of the Year Award and the Mayor`s Special Award. Both individuals and groups are eligible for awards. You can nominate online at
https:https://forms.southwark.gov.uk Telephone Nos. 020 7525 7303
The closing date for nominations is Wednesday 31 January 2018
`Network Rail have completed the required strengthening works to enable the bridge to carry 3 tonne vehicles. There is some minor additional work required but Network Rail have now confirmed the bridge can be re-opened, subject to Traffic Management Order being in place to limit the weight of vehicles using the bridge. The council is now undertaking the legally required consultation on that order.
The mechanism for ensuring the weight restriction is complied with is to install a width restriction to ensure no vehicle greater than 3 tonnes can access the bridge. The design for this width restriction is still being developed to ensure all traffic movements can be accommodated in safety. This includes vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists, plus the traffic signal arrangements.`
