63, 363 and other buses on diversion!


Recommended Posts

Hi all, on my way to the station this morning, I spotted that the bus stops at Heaton Road and Rye Lane had the dreaded 'bus stop not in use' signs over them, and there was a notice saying that buses would be on diversion from 9.30am onwards. From what I could glimpse, I think the diversion will be in place until Friday. The bus stops at Nigel Road and East Dulwich Road may also be out of action, I didn't see unfortunately.


I guess it must apply to all buses going down Rye Lane, so 63, 363, 12, 197 etc - although I'm not sure of the reason for it.


Anyway, just to warn everyone that you'll probably have to walk up Rye Lane up to Peckham Rye Common if you want to catch a bus home tonight!

I wish I had read this yesterday, had no idea until we sailed passed rye lane and was eventually dropped off near Morrisons...if you spotted someone panting and in near need of CPR at the station this morning, it was me after running/stumbling, still half a sleep, so I didn't miss my train ( which I didn't as this was the only time I have ever been pleased it was late) *sets alarm a lot earlier for the morning*

It does seem that the buses or LT aren't cooperating this time . I think it varies according to route and operator.


With previous closures the buses have always clearly announced that after whatever stop ( like Nigel Rd ) they were on diversion . This was often reinforced by the driver .


Now some do and some don't . As I said on another thread I was on a 197 yesterday ( feeling not terribly well and struggling to catch train to Guys for not feeling terribly well treatment ,so no nagging about " man up " and don't moan about a short walk please ) no diversion was announced .


I checked with driver to be told very rudely

" Diversion ? Why would I be on diversion ? "


In practice what this meant was that he didn't divert from his normal route ,sailed on down Rye Lane but just didn't stop until he reached Morrisons .


As for stopping in Copeland Rd the north bound 12 I was on the other day stopped there .

But I think all the south bound buses drive with no stops between the bus garage and Tesco Express aka Nigel Rd stop .

But this was helpfully announced on the 78 bus I was on the other day .


I'm not really moaning ,just saying be aware .

Hopefully we'll be back to business as normal soon .

    • Hi all, I teach violin, viola and piano in the Dulwich area. Currently I have some availability in the afternoon on Monday and Saturday.   I teach in a holistic approach which encompasses developing technical skills, knowledge in music theory and musicality at the same time. The learning approach for violin and viola differs from piano. The violin and viola lessons place more emphasis on the technical training due to the nature of the instruments themselves. For both instruments doing regular and effective practice is the most decisive factor in achieving an successful outcome. I have had great success with helping my students from 5 years old to adults to develop an effective practice strategy.   Experience has shown that every student develops their musical taste and skill differently, and learning is most effective when they play the music that appeal to them. This is particularly important for the younger students who often need custom-designed short musical exercises that cannot be found in the standard method book to address a particular problem that is unique to the student. Many young students can often overcome the technical challenge when the music is accompanied with colourful pictures that capture their attention. For the more advanced and musically inclined students, I encourage them to proactively look for pieces that they would like to learn, or pieces for which we can develop a learning plan to get them to the required level. I also teach violin and piano in the Park Hill School in Norbiton and therefore I am well-experienced in helping the young students to be receptive about learning music. I organize student concerts in the Dulwich area regularly, and I also organize ensemble groups in collaboration with teachers of other musical instruments to perform in these student concerts. My students have achieved excellent results in competition, successfully applied for music scholarships in second schools and obtained outstanding results in the music examinations. teaching   Please do not hesitate to book a free trial lesson with me or contact me to discuss further if you are interested. You are welcome to whatsapp or call my number at 07477633088, or email me at [email protected]. References are available when requested. I look forward to hearing from you !

    • Bowling (Lane 7 or All star lanes), cinema trip plus food, sleepover, karaoke.  Depends what they're into.  Crystal Maze or escape room or if they're sporty there's an archery place near London Bridge / Bermondsey.   With the exception of cinema trip most of those would mean heading somewhere centrally rather than ED though. 
    • You got this. GRRRRR. Can't remember if I've posted that before, if so apologies.
