Hi everyone,

There is a large tree down in Lordship Lane by Highwood Close. It's completely blocked one side of the road.

Police are now directing traffic onto the opposite side of the road in alternate waves. It's likely to take some time to clear it and will cause hold ups later this morning when the traffic builds up. Please avoid!

Is the road still blocked down there? The emergency tree team actually seems to be responding fairly quickly, the top of a chestnut snapped in Melbourne and blocked the road, but it was cleared by 9.30am.

That's good to hear... it's reassuring to know that the council reacts well in an emergency even though the day to day operation is a bit vague. Your road would be more of a high priority, but they even sorted out Melbourne succinctly.


Residents are now collecting logs to use for firewood, so there may not be much to take away tomorrow...

      Cyclists taking over paths!!

      Malumbu, by that measure are police efforts to cut down on anti-social driving by issuing tickets and fines a token effort as well? Surely punitive measures for cyclists breaking the rules will encourage them not to break the rules again? A bit like when you got stopped and taken into the cab of an HGV. The police are currently using that tactic to show those who break the rules cycling that it might lead them to being hit by a lorry due to the driver's having limited vision - the cycling equivalent of a speed awareness course for drivers.    When they stopped you was it because you had broken a rule or was it just more of an education programme and they asked you to take a look and did it change your cycling behaviour in any way? As I said previously there are those who break the rules on cycling out of ignorance (and those out of arrogance) and I am sure they are using HGVs to educate those in the ignorance category and then hitting those in the arrogance category with the PCNs.

      Good that PETA is on it but can we add our voices to the fight against this horrible practice? I’m still shocked! A petition maybe? Happy to raise to the RSPCA but don’t want to duplicate efforts. I’ve signed campaigns from RSPCA before which sends it directly to your councillor

      Yes, I'm aware of that. I believe the brood was five to begin with. However they are almost adult size now so not the prey of rats any longer.
