I can't follow this. Have they broken planning permission? If so, what happens next?

Yep, agree with that.

Looking at the crash map it seems that two areas of concern are Chadwick Road (where it crosses Bellenden) and peckham road at the crossing from Lyndhurst Road to and from Kelly avenue. I'm not shocked. The former, I can't see anyone being able to do much about. In my experience a lot of vehicles will see bikes and dash out in front of them regardless, because they don't want to be held up, or simply for sport. This is about education more than road layout in my opinion. There are a number of drivers who will go out of their way to cut up cyclists and this is a classic spot for the belligerent Top Gear watching van driver. The second 'hotspot' could do with some attention - the crossing between Lyndhurst and Kelly Avenue. I believe it's outside the scope of this consultation though.

This all sounds rather positive. So is the Elephant 'fixed' now?

There are a lot of necessary restrictions. There should be more short stay (30min) parking.

You do occasionally get drivers coming out of Chadwick Road, cutting across cyclist travelling down Bellenden (usually idiots doing it quite intentionally). Agree that the surface on Lyndhurst is terrible and as said it's difficult to cross from and to Kelly Ave. to join the quietway. Otherwise, it seems OK cycling around Bellenden.

Is this related to the accident on Dunstans / underhill, or another one?

Sorry to hear about your experience Amy, I hope you can put it behind you. Glad everyone's OK.

Thanks for the update James

What would make the biggest single difference for lot's of cyclists already using this route daily, is a safer way to cross Peckham Road between Kelly Avenue and Lyndhurst Way.

Sorry for typos, on my phone

Yes, this is why it would probably involve closing LJ. Lambeth politicians are t going to support this as it disadvantages their constituents disproportionately

What was the Strategic Rail Authority at the time, did I believe, agree to reopen the station on the proviso that it would mean the closure of Loughborough station. The council wouldn't agree to this so it didn't happen.personally I thought that was a mistake at the time, as LJ is very close to both Brixton aoverground and underground station and those to the northwould be ceithin walking distance of Camberwell. To have the Thameslink serve Camberwell (a major town centre) makes more sense. I suspect similar conditions would be applied by Network rail even if they were willing to revisit this. With all the developments happening around Camberwell green and along the Thmes,ink line generally, I am surprised that section 106 conditions haven't been used to see he station funded.

All the best, Dan Sorry to see the Seacow closing, wish you all the best.

I heard it's going to be a new shop called 'The Chalk Block'

The new flats are likely to be more commercial (i.e empty investment vehicles) than truly residential.

how many threads?!

It has 'sh*t' sprayed across the ankle of one of the fighters. I only saw it recently, but it may have been there for some time. It hasn't been fixed.

The problem is BNG that the existing lines are all fragmented, suburban rail franchises. The chances of them being integrated and run in the interests of anyone other than Kent commuters is unlikely whilst the current model continues (if they're bought under the control of TFL then we may see them more aligned with the needs of inner London). This is why we need a high frequency, dedicated urban railway (aka the tube).

The fighters next to the EDT. Some idiot sprayed an expletive across the bottom of it.

Yes, let's see the park fenced off for three days, so kids from Guildford can pay ?80 to be sold rubbish, whilst listening to Adele and discussing how "Peckham's not that bad, and only 20 minutes from Clapham junction". I have no interest in this at all. How about supporting local live music venues and bands rather than having some corporate events company take over our park in order to 'tap into the experience economy'? Bah!

So was the Conor Harrington mural unfortunately.
