Dock Health and Safety
Boring but important, Health and Safety is easy to ignore and it is simple to think it has “nothing to do with me!” But Health and Safety is the responsibility of every one. As residents you are the ‘eyes and ears’ of the Dock, you will see things that are not ‘safe’. If in any doubt please contact the Office and we will investigate. [email protected] Telephone 02085685096 or security out of hours on 07970143999.
Please see the attached flyer promoting the Parking Group Meeting. All residents are welcome, if you wish to make any comments please contact [email protected]
Old Office Conversion
NOW AFTERContractors will be starting work shortly to convert the old office above Security into a 2 bedroom apartment. The residents nearby in Romulus Court will be contacted with more details. The project is scheduled to take 3-4 months and should cause minimal disruption to the services that security provide.

Again a request not to leave rubbish outside front doors, or next to the bin chutes even for short periods. Last week on 3 occasions cleaners had to clear up bin liners that had been ripped open by animals and the contents spread around.
Dog - owners please don’t allow your pets to urinate on the walkways. It’s not the cleaners job to clean up after your pet!
Please don’t addressed your parcel's to ‘the security office’, if we do not know who they are for, security will not accept them.
The bin chutes on the Dock are standard for this type of development, but with all mechanical things, care is needed when using them. Please don’t let your children use them.
Residents’ Comments / Housekeeping Issues
What's happening on the Dock Food Waste Bins
The LBH food bins are now situated around the Dock. You should all have had a letter from the Council explaining what will happen next. You will be having a small food caddy and compostable bags delivered. Please DO NOT use the bins yet, wait until the Council say they will be starting collections. This picture was taken of one of our bins with food being put in it already, in plastic bags. Don’t use plastic bags only compostable/biodegradable bags can be used.
Hounslow Parking enforcement
If you want to take advantage of the Syon Park Dock Gate, again this year please submit your application as soon as possible. If you are not renewing please return swipe cards to the Management Office as they can be reprogrammed.
Syon Park
• The official Brentford Dock website is brentforddock.com Please contact the office for access to the shareholders section.
• Work has started on the Residents’ clubroom refurbishment. • Block redecorations continue, if you are in Numa, Romulus or Galba Court and
have not had your front door painted yet please contact the office urgently, so we can make arrangements.
• The work outside Otho Court has resumed and the contractors now believe they have found a solution to the problem, so fingers crossed.
• Shareholders, if you are letting your property, or are considering doing so, make sure that the lettings agents that you employ to manage your property are members of all the necessary Trade Associations and comply with all Government regulations. Apparently some of your fellow Shareholders have had problems with agents and correcting any difficulties can proved very expensive.
LBH are enforcing parking on their part of the Dock issuing tickets for yellow line and pavement contraventions . Last week they also removed a van that was on the Augustus Close pavement. We have no control over these tickets, so park with care. We have also had two new yellow boxes painted, one at the top of Dock Road ramp and the other next to the green house. These are to protect essential access and we will issue tickets to vehicles left in thee areas.
