SE18: Streets & Areas We Reach
SE18 means Woolwich to us — plus every side street in between. It’s Greenwich territory, worked by the same crews that cover Greenwich High Road and the roads around Royal Observatory Greenwich, and its neighbours SE17, SE19 and SE16 are on the same dispatch patch.
Permit Zones, CPZs & Narrow Roads
The Woolwich side of SE18 is classic inner London: permit bays, school streets, width restrictions. Crews routing in via Eltham High Street deal with all of it daily, so the seized brakes job gets done without a parking drama on top of a breakdown.
