They?ve either not looked at it or are deliberately ignoring it. I?ll call and chase tomorrow.

Thanks First mate, saved me typing, the lights were irrelevant here. Traffic was to station and to roundabout. It isn't like that all the time but much more often since planters. Also what's with all the multi coloured paint on road by planters, looks like all about to be dug up or changed again?

And still we hear nothing from the council. This is what happened at Loughborough Junction, council ignored the feedback from residents on what was going on and then had to wait until the emergency services told them their road closures were endangering lives (well they ignored them to begin with until the local MP intervened at the behest of the ambulance services).


Southwark and our local councillors seem to have their heads in the sand too, hoping the problem evaporates....

Agreed. I would also be very keen to understand the knock on impact on bus travel times. Presumably this is something that TFL monitor.

    • 39 Grove Vale SE22 8EQ 0208 693 9749 It's on the other side of the road from ED station, on the left as you go from the station  towards Goose Green (or on the right as you head towards the station from Goose Green). See the photo someone posted above! I don't think they have a website - it's a small place - but their Instagram according to their menu  is @chernthai though I haven't checked it out yet. They are closed on Tuesdays, otherwise open 12-3 and 5-9 or 10. I think that varies at weekends.
