Roadworks,traffic lights,zebra crossing chaos East Dulwich Grove

Is there a thread about this already? For one tiny bit of roadworks I can?t believe the chaos.

queues from lordship lane end to the lights by Townley road with the much quieter Townley road traffic given equal time to EDG on the green light -when only about about four Cars going through in that time, The queue to get through the roadworks made worse by a busy zebra crossing that should instead be on a coordinated pedestrian light. Traffic on green held up by zebra so few cars get through when it?s their turn.

Please, please switch of engines in queuing traffic.


This road already has illegal levels of pollution from the traffic without the additional fumes from so many cars idling away sitting in the queue going nowhere.


Interestingly pollution can be worse inside the car, upto 3 times especially when sat in heavy traffic pulling in the fumes from the exhaust infront. Experts refer to it as ?sitting inside a toxic box? 🤢

    • Went to book a film to find Surrey Quays Odeon is no more. Such a shame, I didn't realise everything was being  shut there. Used to love a bit of bowling at the Hollywood Bowl too. https://southwarknews.co.uk/area/rotherhithe/surrey-quays-odeon-cinema-confirms-august-closure-date/
    • Thanks for the link! I should have thought to add that. If you click on "artists" in the menu, there is information about the artists, but it's very difficult to relate it to the map when you can't print off the map (at least I haven't been able to, but I've only tried from my phone so far).
    • Do you mean the small charity shop on Lordship Lane just before you get to the roundabout? Near the pharmacist? Can't remember what it's called. The Mind Shop is the one on the corner after  you have crossed  the road to go to the station, and I'm pretty sure the jeweller/watch repairer wasn't there - it was actually on Lordship Lane, at the roundabout end though. Crikey, I had forgotten about the video shop. The stationers was a strange place, but they sold art stuff as well which was sometimes useful. Then some time later there was that large place - ED Deli? - next to the EDT, which had very yummy Florentines, but seemed to go into a gradual decline until it eventually closed. If it had opened a bit later it might have survived, but probably gentrification wasn't sufficiently advanced at that point. Platform 1 was for a series of pop up restaurants, wasn't it? Or at least, a restaurant with a series of pop up chefs. I don't recall it ever being a cocktail bar? And they were originally going to call it a very rude name ( which sadly I can't remember,  but I think it may have been Pussy Liquor  - I don't think they were cat owners) and there was a whole thread on here where various people pointed out that it wasn't a very appropriate name, so they changed it 🤣🤣🤣 I think someone must have thought it was hilarious because I think Meat Liquor had just opened down the road ...  For a short time there was a very good South Indian vegetarian restaurant, but hardly anybody went to it, and sadly it closed. Again, it might have survived now, it was probably a bit too early in the gentrification process.
    • I don't know any of these people or many places but it is good reading x
