singalto Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 The work being done at the Whateley rd/LL junction is taking forever and doesn?t look anywhere near finished. 😡 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/184644-p13-bus-route-anyone-know-when-itll-be-back/page/2/#findComment-1231871 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bic Basher Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 It's supposed to reopen on Thursday evening, can't see it happening.

Angharad_L Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 As someone who formerly relied on the P13 for the nursery run while pregnant, I'm so grateful I'm not using that route for the moment as the road has been closed for almost a month! As the P13 also serves Sainsbury's ... surely there are people who rely on this route for getting out the house and their shopping (thinking of older people especially)How can it take so long to do one teeny bit of road?!

Nigello Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Hardly any work done at Whateley - just the theatre of construction: big signs; barriers; heavy machinery. Does Conway do several jobs at once - same workers on both but at different parts of the day or what?

DulwichFox Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Something needs to be done. These companies need to be fined for their slow progress. ?5,000 - ?10,000 per day The work would be done much quicker if they were fined.

singalto Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Considering the large number of men ?working? in Whateley road I do not understand how the progress is so slow! I wonder if there is a phone number on the barriers around the work. Maybe we could all ring whatever company is doing the work..

singalto Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I went past the junction at 3pm and there was no sign of any work being done as the workmen had all gone!

singalto Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Bic Basher, the junction did look good so the men must have only just left when I went past at 3. I don?t understand why they finish so early though.

Bic Basher Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 The road has reopened but buses are still on diversion. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/184644-p13-bus-route-anyone-know-when-itll-be-back/page/2/#findComment-1233131 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howard Golder Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 The so-called works at Whateley Road seem to be complete. But I suppose it will take the 'workers' another 4 weeks to remove the Road Closed notice! So hard luck P13 users, who have been treated very shabbily by The Mayor of London & TFL Why oh Why was the P13 diversion not via Roads like Pellat Rd, Barry Rd, Crystal Palace Rd (to name but a few) instead of closing off ALL Underhill Road - including the old Folks care home in Underhill Rd? I guess TFL either don't care, or they're having a laugh. I don't suppose we can swear on this site. Pity - as I can think of a few choice words I'd like to address to TFL & Mr. Khan! Having said all this, I must compliment the P13 drivers who have done their best to help in trying circumstances over which they have no control.

redjam Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Um, I'd have thought the Mayor of London has slightly more pressing matters to attend to than the exact route of a temporary bus diversion in East Dulwich, no?

Bic Basher Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 The side roads would have be tested for suitability for the buses used, along with route learning for the drivers. Using the main road ensures that the buses can be kept to as close to the route as possible without any major delays, but I emphasise with Underhill Road residents who have been without their bus route for a month.

James Barber Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 The resurfacing of Whateley Road between Lordship lane and just beyond Landcroft Road is now timetabled for next Thursday 12 April.It was postponed due to the weather from memory and the earlier closure in March.So expect the P13 to be diverted again.

dbboy Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Farcical. you couldn't make it up if you tried, why don't you inconvenience everyone AGAIN. Oh BUT you are.What seems to be forgotten is that people rely on the P13 who live on roads adjacent to Underhill so that they can get to Sainsburys DKH. Being on diversion will again further inconvenience a great number of people. Someone needs to get this sorted ASAP.

Angharad_L Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 What the hell! It took more than a month to do that teeny tiny bit, and now there is more to do?! It's a joke! Will be closed all year at this rate. The bus stop is also closed down towards Peckham. It's ridiculous ....

Bic Basher Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Diversion signs have already gone up, which suggest the diversion will be different this time.From Lordship Lane, Barry Road to Underhill Road this time round.
