Rye Lane cycle lane confusion and danger

rendelharris Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Chapter 5 can be found here Thanks rendelharris. We now have the law about the signage and ground markings that make a "cycle lane" legal. There seems to be some doubt about whether this is in fact a "cycle lane". We now need to find the Traffic Management Order [TMO] that permitted the introduction of a "cycle lane". This should be somewhere in the London Gazette. -
Love West Dulwich Lamp-post Banner Competition is now live!
edhistory replied to rigbydan's topic in The Lounge
This is the banner I like. I'd like to visit it and take a photograph. Does anyone know here it was installed? Still not found the documents on the Southwark Council web-site. I'm also interested in the mechanism by which Lambeth businesses refunded Southwark Council. -

Rye Lane cycle lane confusion and danger
edhistory replied to Huggers's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Here's an extract from the official Traffic Signs Manual Chapter 3 [2008]. Can anyone locate a copy of Chapter 5 and get s screen-grab of the required Diagram 1049 or 1049.1 white lines? ======================== 17.33 Where a footway (forming part of a road) or footpath (e.g. through a park) has been converted to a route shared by pedestrians and cyclists, signs to either diagram 956 or 957 are used. These prohibit the use of the route by any other vehicles. The sign to diagram 956 indicates an unsegregated route. It should be located where the shared route begins and must be used as a repeater, at regular intervals(direction 11), to remind both pedestrians and cyclists that pedal cycles can be legally ridden on the footway or footpath. The sign to diagram 957indicates a segregated shared route that should be delineated by a continuous white marking to either diagram 1049 or 1049.1 (see para 16.15 in Chapter 5). The sign may be reversed in a mirror image according to which side of the route is used by cyclists and which side by pedestrians. The sign should be located at the start of the segregated route and must be used as a repeater at regular intervals along the route (direction 11). -

Does this mean that this "cycle lane" does not have the legally required markings? -

former East Dulwich councillor - how can I help?
edhistory replied to James Barber's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
That was not the law when I looked into this matter in 2015 for a near neighbour. Laws change. Mr Barber will be able to answer your questions after the election. -

I understand your argument that Nunhead ceased to exist in 1917 when it was allocated a SE15 post code.

Southwark Council operatives have previously asserted that this is an eco-crime. Policy may have changed. Mr Barber will know the answer.

PeckhamRose Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Thanks for this. We love our map, but have little > wall space left! In 1865 there was a House of Lords inquiry into the theft of Peckham Rye Common land by the Lord of The Manor. At para 3259 of the minutes is corroboration of the map details. A comparison of the map scan with a modern map shows how much land was stolen, described as "small encroachments" at para 3274. We also have the matter of leaseholders' gravel extraction rights. It's good to get a another confirmation that the Lambeth Group underlies the common and not London Clay. [bTW there is nothing in subsequent legislation to suggest that the leaseholders' mineral rights were extinguished] The matter of the SE15 post code can wait until later.

Neat wind-up. The copy of the 1799 map I gave you has a blue line that shows the Friern Manor boundary. The other side of the blue line is Buckingham Manor. I have uploaded a scan of the relevant area of the map for those who have not seen the full map. The offer of free copies still stands. The matter of the SE15 post code can wait until later.

Art Deco architecture in East Dulwich
edhistory replied to edhistory's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Domino's is poor man's art deco. The sort you don't find in the architectural history books. Infra dig. A better preserved example is over at Nunhead. -
