Thames water are renewing sewer pipes along Barry Road starting tomorrow (2nd September) A letter was sent out to some local residents a few days ago, but this has not been widely publicised. Barry Road will be closed one way at the junction with Peckham Rye resulting in no through road to Peckham Rye. This has had little publicity and the effect is that buses (12 and 197) will be on a one way diversion from Dulwich library, along Lordship Lane to the EDT roundabout , up East Dulwich Road and rejoin the route at the stop opposite where the lido was / is proposed . On the return journey they can still traverse the normal route down Barry road to the library. Traffic diversions will also be in effect but no information has been given to what and where these are. The road closure will move up towards the junction of Upland Road over a number of months and Thames Water expect the roadworks to take around 5 months Little warning has been given to residents about the loss of buses one way down Barry Road (this will effect commuters going to Peckham Rye station and school children getting to school as its the start of term this week) and there is no information in which of the side roads diversions will be on thus adding main road traffic (including heavy lorries abd delivery vehicles) to some of them. I hope the council and councillors are on this and make roads that are used for diversions temporarily one way to facilitate a reduction in potential grid lock, increased fumes and a higher risk of accidents !
