I live in the area, contacted southwark council and tfl, have not received a response yet why the works are to take 13 weeks. How about working long hours / weekends / overnight? To minimise the chaos and disruption.

South Circular roadworks - excessive disruption

Yeah, would want to know which part of Dulwich this individual lives in - or even if it is a real person 🤔 -

One hole covered, another one dug out, closer to LL / Wood Vale bus stop: And hey, the Wood Vale is closed! Such fun -

Derelict Grove Tavern - who to contact?

Telling. How much we miss the only Southwark councillor I've ever met and talked to - James Barber -

"Wouldn't it make more sense to ask the guy who posted the rumours for the source of the information?" - perhaps, probably, you might be right. "But renovating the Grove would be even bigger because it's totally wrecked, and there's a shortage of skilled labour and much more expensive materials now..." - yeah, but all of this was also true 12 years ago - imagine how much more the building is wrecked by now and how much more expensive materials are - and how very little skilled labour is available in England now 🤔 -

@Andy Simmons as the area Labour councilor of many years, can you please provide an update on the Grove Tavern situation? A real eye sore, left abandoned for many years - there should've been a block of flats, new park or a shop built in its place by now. Labour seems to be bent on destroying whatever little green space is left in the country - why not to use places like this instead to build on? -

Ok so no work done on Saturday on Sunday. No overnight works. 8am during the week - no one on site. 5pm during the week - nobody. It must be the first ever TfL "working from home" road repair. -
You mean Margy Nevens and Richard Leemings the Southwark Labour councillors also known as " screw everyone except those who like us i.e. our rich friends"
-
"uneconomical to repair" - what does this mean? I can adk a friend to repair it for a fraction of the council cost - why is this not an option? Money wasted on closed Dulwich Village junction absolutely relevant - where does it come from? Why there is money to spend on closed DV and yet nothing left for the bridge in Dulwich Park - if this is a reason for the repair delays?
-
It's been blocked for ages and no movement so far. Whatever needed fixing initially, most likely it's a much bigger problem now. Surely Southwark Council cannot say this is because of lack money if millions can be wasted on never ending refurbishment of closed Dulwich Village junction...?

As if the situation on South Circular wasn't bad enough, the Thames Water decided to dig out a hole near LL /Wood Vale and block the bus lane -
