  1. Or the most likely option is it’s simply an error (as that bit of Calton Ave is resident permit only) and the sign needs replacing to remove the mention of a 1 hr max.
  2. Recommend emailing your local councillors and MP
  3. Presume the one on Calton is an error as it’s resident permit parking so a 1 hr max doesn’t apply.
  4. If only there was some way for drivers to avoid being fined…
  5. It’s temporary, the Dulwich Estate is due to finish the section by the shops soon.
  6. Thank you to St Barnabas Church for a lovely carol service with their children’s choir and brass band in Dulwich Square - hundreds of people gathering, a special event!
  7. That’s an extra sign isn’t it? The one with the timings was still there recently.
  8. Off topic much? This is a CPZ thread.
  9. If you spot it, it’s worth reporting as the Southwark website says they aim to clean within 48hrs. https://www.southwark.gov.uk/parking-streets-and-transport/street-care/dog-poo
  10. The ‘Our Bike’ community cargo bike might be an option, especially if you have some other shopping to do nearby on the Old Kent Rd. You can hire the bike by the hour, and there are two available in East Dulwich. https://ourbike.co.uk/
  11. Trossachs Road is worth walking to, lovely advent windows.
  12. St Barnabas Church will be hosting carols in the square on Christmas Eve at 3:30pm. It's always a heartwarming occasion to see the community come together and enjoy the festive spirit in this beautiful space.
  13. This is all disingenuous nonsense. I haven't seen a single mention from those concerned about 'dangerous cycling' regarding the motorcyclists speeding through illegally—one of whom collided with a 14-year-old girl riding her bike—or the fact that concrete blocks and other barriers have had to be placed to prevent reckless drivers from mounting the curb and driving through pedestrian areas.
  14. It’s obvious which version is safer, and also which version has allowed more children than ever to be walking and cycling to school. Nicely illustrated by this photo comparison in a recent post from Clean Air Dulwich. https://bsky.app/profile/cleanairdulwich.bsky.social/post/3ld6usq4qbs2a
  15. Agree, the roads would be a much safer place if the speed of drivers was restricted to the speed limit.
  16. I hear it’s been reunited with the owner
  17. It’s a Sustainable Drainage System (SuDS) in the form of a rain garden. Appeared to be working very well during the week when there was heavy rain overnight.
  18. Worth reading this https://www.forbes.com/sites/carltonreid/2024/11/26/most-uk-police-forces-now-use-incident-not-accident-finds-research/
  19. Again Rockets, please stop with calling them accidents. Language matters. https://www.fleetnews.co.uk/news/national-highways-to-stop-using-of-the-word-accident
  20. Thank goodness it didn't happen at rush hour given it's proximity to the school and how busy that junction is with people walking and cycling.
  21. You’re right, I see happy people there all the time. Last week I saw a young boy cycling through with his Dad, he excitedly shouted “it’s so much better!” when his Dad pointed out that the cycle lane was completed. Replacing the echelon parking with normal bays is immeasurably safer also. Improvements everywhere around, not just in the square. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DCWOWo9odM6/?igsh=MTMycmpvaXY1a3Axdw==
  22. Some people will never be happy. end of thread
  23. Presume you’re referring to the temporary planters near East Dulwich station, which I agree are looking tatty. The good news is East Dulwich is getting public realm improvements too, surely you didn’t miss the consultation? https://services.southwark.gov.uk/transport-and-roads/improving-our-streets/live-projects/street-improvements/east-dulwich-streets-for-people
  24. Did you read the briefing sheet from RoadPeace (the National Charity for Road Crash Victims) @Spartacus?
  25. I recommend reading this to help you understand why it’s inappropriate to refer to crashes and collisions as accidents @Rockets ”It’s a crash, not an accident. End the language of denial.” https://www.roadpeace.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/RP_Crash_not_Accident_Briefing_Sheet.pdf
