Bus Strike


lparsons

Recommended Posts

63 and 363 are both operated by London Central, a subdivision of Go Ahead who are on the list to strike.


40 (Abellio), 176 (Arriva) and 185 (also London Central) are also set to be affected.


I'm not clear on what proportion of drivers are UNITE members, but I guess forewarned is forearmed...

I'm at the Honor Oak start/end of the 63 and am anticipating that they both wont be available :(

Trains are operating tomorrow. Buses is a case of checking Countdown before setting off. You may find a resemblance of a bus service on some of the affected routes during one part of the day as non-union drivers are rostered on, but when their shift ends, it may be out of service.


London Overground from Denmark Hill, Peckham Rye, Forest Hill or HOP will accept bus passengers over reasonable routes.

363 running about every 15 mins when I caught it, no 63 at all, so bus was full by time it got to east Dulwich road/Peckham rye..also due to more people getting trains I was barely just able to get on train at Peckham rye, it was like the hunger games there this morning ! ;)

Dun, what route did you take. I'd do that a lot more in the summer if it only took me 40 mins to Victoria. I live on Peckham Rye.


By the time i walk to Peckham Rye staion, wait for a train and get into Victoria a 40 minute walk on a bright morning sounds great.

Not the case for East Dulwish/Peckham Rye trains which terminate at London Bridge - just the through trains which normally use platforms 1-6.

I would avoid LB if possible today too


"A signalling problem at London Bridge is causing delays of up to 30 minutes to Southern and Thameslink services to and from the station. There is no firm estimate yet of how long disruption will last but it is likely to continue until at least 15:00.

    • More interested in the future than the past. 
    • The plans The developer Berkeley Homes have submitted a planning application to redevelop the Aylesham Centre close to the junction of Peckham High Street and Rye Lane, containing Morrison’s supermarket, car park, & petrol station, Aylesham shopping arcade and most of that side of Rye Lane between Hanover Park and Peckham High Street. The application is for a mixed housing, retail, leisure and commercial development, in buildings ranging from 5 to 20 storeys. Impact Local people who have studied the detailed plans think that the development would dominate the historic town centre which has evolved since the 18th century, and would ruin the Conservation Area which was awarded in 2011 'to preserve and enhance its character and appearance'. More than 65% of the homes to be built in this unimaginative over-bearing development will be unaffordable by most people who live in Southwark, and provide inadequate open and green space for this part of Peckham. Need for discussion This is such an important issue for south London that it needs wide discussion before the Council Planning Committee takes its decision (not before next Spring). A free on-line talk and discussion to clarify the heritage issues we all need to think about is being held on Monday 11th November 7-8.30pm. All will be welcome. Please register on this link: https://Defend-Peckhams-Heritage-2024.eventbrite.co.uk There are several other key issues raised by the plans which are being examined in the Aylesham Community Action (ACA) campaign. You can find the link to all that and other useful information here: www.linktr.ee/acapeckham The zoom session is being arranged by Peckham Heritage the local group that has grown from the community work alongside the restoration of nine historic buildings in Peckham High Street through the Townscape Heritage Initiative. We hope that EDF members who value local heritage will be able to attend the session to hear and take part in the discussion, and report back to this topic so the discussion can continue.
    • I did see a few Victoria bound 185's on East Dulwich road around 5pm this evening. Coming from the Rye end and heading toward Goose green
