Upland Road dropped kerbs


Recommended Posts

Hello. I'm just being unbelievably nosey but it bugs me every time I go past here (near Goodrich Road junction).


Why would the Council / Conway resurface Upload Road, then put white lines along the dropped kerb bits, and then black them out again? This would suggest that the white lines were invalid and people are allowed to park there, although I wouldn't out of courtesy for the people who live in the houses. Seems strange.

This makes no sense. If there is a 2 car family, then they can have one car on the drive (charging for example) and they can happily block themselves in. Why reduce parking?

Makes no sense at all.

The contractors put the white lines in by accident as Southwark?s policy for a number of years has been to no longer paint these. So Southwark asked the contractors to paint over them.


I don?t think this means that you can park over the dropped kerbs as it is an offence to block cars in by parking over a dropped kerb regardless of white lines.

    • I had no idea about the sourcing of the paving stones - where is the info on this? The extension of the paved area seems completely unjustified- plus, there is a cycle lane right thru the middle so there are bound to be some near misses with pedestrians. 
    • That's really awful. There must be someone further up the management chain who could be made aware of this? 
    • I'm assuming that anybody who has a cat can afford  its food, litter, vets' fees etc. Nobody was saying that two quid is "nothing", but it's cheaper than some brands of cat litter, so was hopefully useful to the OP. Still, hopefully your post made you feel better 👍 🤣 We still don't know why there was a bag of cat litter at the bus stop! Surely it would be rather difficult to take it away unnoticed if the owner of the cat litter was  also at the bus stop? It's not like someone distracted your attention and picked your pocket and you didn't notice till some time later! But what is also confusing me is, if the OP knows where the thief lives, why don't they go and ask for their cat litter back?
    • The market is only there for a few hours on Saturdays! Surely all street markets are "a bit tatty"! That seems a strange reason to close a road permanently to traffic!  There is already at least one seat  in North Cross Road (which seems to be quite well used),  apart from those for customers of The Palmerston,  and several of the shops in the road have greenery outside
