Have just enjoyed watching 100s of cyclists go past on Peckham Rye west. Couple of penny farthings, lit up bikes and music too!

For the North Cross Rd one, other than this post on the day, the only sign I saw was a few papers on lampposts saying no parking due to an event. It didn't say what the event was. On the day at around 1.45pm all the parked cars were still there and there was just 1 unusual stall (an info stand about a children's activity group).

I witnessed something interesting in this area this afternoon. A large lorry (articulated cab and 3 double sets of wheels front and back) was coming from the direction of Lordship Lane and going to turn left into Railway Rise. In order to do so, it had to first stop on the new zebra crossing and gesticulate until enough oncoming vehicles had passed that those left (stationary) were as far back as Pret. The lorry then pulled out onto the wrong side of the island and turned into Railway Rise. Even doing this it was only just far out enough to make the turn.

Was just watching about 8 playing around above the Piermont Green area.

The other way round they would be directing people to cross the same way as the bikes are going. I don't think it makes sense to have them directly on the cycle way at all.

Thank you for the traffic update. Very important info I will pass on to someone travelling that way to an exam tomorrow.

Does anyone know if these works have started yet? They hadn't at 7am this morning.

I agree, but if this was to be the main entrance/exit the road outside would need to be much safer, with new crossings and widened pavements etc.

Ha ha. Is there any colour post box outside William Rose, or is the starting date the most relevant thing here?

"corner of Melbourne and Lytcott (in front of the Urban Orchard)," I didn't know that was an urban orchard. Must go and have a look!

In my childhood home I remember wood pigeons attempting to make a nest on the TV ariel each year!

I would rather leave earlier and take a longer route, using some of the quieter side roads.

Is that for garden waste?

The signage at the Townley Road end says that the cycle path is closed and cyclists should divert. It is, however, possible for cyclists to go through carefully which many are doing and I definitely would if I was cycling rather than walking.

Good thinking. I'm definitely not claiming to be an excellent speller or grammar user.
