Garden News

This year’s Formosa AGM will be held on Monday June 23rd at 6.30 pm at St Saviour’s School. As well as financial & budgetary matters there will be a chance to put any questions relating to the Garden to Jan Melkenbeek, the head of Gravitas. Other topics will include up-coming social events & Communications. Residents will also get the opportunity to meet representatives of our new managing Agents AM Surveying & Block Management .in person. so do come along -- all are welcome!


Users of the Bakerloo line will have been horrified by the state of the tube trains over recent months, with almost every carriage defaced by graffiti both inside & out. Local Councillors have been lobbying Transport for London, responsible for both the stations & the trains, to take remedial action & now it seems the clean-up has begun. As of May 10th TFL say 13 of the 36 Bakerloo trains have been cleaned & over 4,000 "tags" removed. They expect to complete this first cycle of internal cleaning within the next four weeks.

Longer term it seems some much-needed new trains may be coming down the track, given the £485m in capital funding awarded to TFL by the Government this year.

Contractors have completed repairs on the electronic garden gate, and it is now operating as expected. If you experience any further issues, please contact us at support@formosagarden.co.uk.



Updated 7.15pm, 25th April 2025


Contractors have now inspected the faulty gate. While the exact cause of the issue has not yet been confirmed, we are aware of two contributing factors: a power outage on 24th April and a recent increase in access to the garden by building contractors.

 

An investigation is underway to determine the root cause.

 

Regrettably, it has not been possible to restore gate functionality in time for the weekend of 26th–27th April. Contractors are scheduled to return early next week to carry out a full repair.

 

For the latest updates, please visit our website, which will be kept current with all relevant information.

Following a power outage yesterday, the garden gate is currently out of operation. Garden managers identified the issue earlier today and have arranged for a contractor to attend within the next few hours to carry out repairs.


We apologise for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience. We will provide an update as soon as access to the garden has been restored.
