CSCC Anchor Placement Programme
To request that CSCC consider placing anchors in a place where there are currently none, or that may benefit for additional anchors, please bring it to a CSCC meeting by filling in the anchor request form below.
The list below details previous request and other intended work. A rejection in the past does not mean that the same place should not be submitted again, attitudes change over time.
