Threats of closure due to maintenance issues have been a recurrent problem in recent years. [1] [2] [3] Despite a pledge to revamp the pier for the London 2012 Olympics, [4] Southwark Council was unable to secure the investment required [5] and served notice of the pier's closure on 16 March 2012. Subsequent negotiations between Thames Clippers and Southwark Council [6] resulted in its purchase by Thames Clippers, who will now take responsibility for its upkeep. [7]
