  1. What? She was a random person just planting trees?
  2. Metallic, Rockets has kindly provided a link above.
  3. I feel things are turning.
  4. Very interesting bit of data on twitter. OK it?s by dulwich alliance but nevertheless worth reading.
  5. Then what would be the point of adding roads to drop down? Wonder when / why that decision was made? Too late to update flyers? The Southwark magazine only mentions LTN review discretely in smallish print ?look out for your local review?.
  6. Great to hear thanks
  7. Better bus routes = Fewer cars
  8. It?s for the newer greener 185/176 route. Getting NHS staff to kings faster. And Yes its wide enough, if you doubt that check the 63 bus.
  9. What may be true of some other LTNs is not true of Dulwich LTNs.
  10. But all wards are not the same. It was a pity to hear Dulwich village was given ?1850 for ongoing costs of hanging baskets. I had thought such costs were not allowed under the rules of CGF. Either way I think this 'equal allocation' principle should be looked at. Money should follow need.
  11. thankyou Legalalien. I wonder if I would have seen this otherwise and I wonder what strategies the council are using to reach non internet users.
  12. Reroute the 176 and 185 down Melbourne grove. Enough space for bike and bus lanes. Would cut 10 mins easy off journey time
  13. You say improving air will take place by some sort of bottom up approach. loads of individuals making certain changes. that sounds a bit like thatcher when she said there's no such thing as society. Bottom up is not enough it must work in unison with a top down approach [government, council] which does not favour the needs of the already healthy, the already rich. I never listened to Vine's show but when you describe a caller as 'angry and ranting' it shows you are not really interested in debate. The local issue is very clear. Walk down lordship past the lordship lane estate the fumes are sickening. Look down he glorious boulevard of court lane. 1 bike and a pram. The inequity of this particular LTN is astonishing and bringing in a generalist argument about the environment does not work. But I congratulate you this is definitely my longest post ever.
  14. Malumbo again I suggest your posts would be better placed in the lounge. Here is the correct location for east dulwich matters.
  15. There are some narrow streets between Peckham road and the old Kent road that are now part of ltns. This looks great there was never enough room for cars to pass Whilly different from the broad avenues of dulwich village.
  16. Ok but the fact that dulwich village is the richest part of south Southwark is impossible to dispute.
  17. It says that some roads have up to 60% BAME residents. As Southwark failed in its legal duty to complete an Equalities Impact Assessment it?s difficult to dispute. I had thought they were going to do it retrospectively but nothing has happened.
  18. Trouble is they?ve blocked me. Very narrow view as to who gets this ?clean air? Edited to say my comment is about malumbo?s comment not the op.
  19. Hi Natty, 176 and 185 would skip the jam on lordship lane. Faster buses mean more people use them. Melbourne grove would becomea bike and bus route. Many NHS workers and other essential workers use that route
  20. They are getting ready for the magnificent new green bus route.
  21. Reroute buses and bikes down Melbourne
  22. some individual councillors have been quite unpleasant on twitter about individual businesses. It doesnt make it right. Councillors look after their own territory that I suppose is understandable. But their thinking should be underpinned by the principles of the political party they represent and a broader cross ward vision.
  23. Of course those that benefit are more likely to be in favour. It is a pity that a strong Labour ward can see social injustice as a fair price for their improved ?quality of life?. I say there can be no quality without equality.
