Again, surely any safety improvement is an odd thing to be against? Blocking the tactile paving is a major problem for people who are blind or visually impaired. (Photos from Clean Air Dulwich & Dulwich Roads Twitter/X)

Improving sightlines which increases safety for everyone is a really odd thing to be against.

100% behind this. It’s a disgrace that so many people’s bus journeys are delayed because of parked cars blocking the bus lane.

Low water pressure- Heber Road
march46 replied to Southeast Twenty Stu's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
To be fair, the holes had mostly been filled yesterday and it looks as though they will be resurfacing today. It’s less than 2 years since there were repairs at the same place, hopefully this time it will last longer! -
Don’t believe everything you hear - the Greek restaurant on Melbourne Grove was converted into residential many years before the road was changed and I’m pretty sure the secondhand clothes shop is still there. There’s also what appears to be lots of new thriving businesses - Art K looks like it’s very popular, as well as the new Reformer Pilates studio. The coffee shop, Nido and Drop Dulwich are great additions too.

East Dulwich Grove is currently closed to a Thames Water leak also, with diversions for the 37 and 42. -
If you’re concerned about road danger - especially at this location on Lordship Lane where drivers speeding is a problem - I’d recommend emailing [email protected] and cc your local councillors https://moderngov.southwark.gov.uk/mgFindMember.aspx?

Recommend listening to this podcast. The gig economy exploiting delivery riders is a major part of the problem and I personally avoid using Deliveroo, Just Eats etc... Delivery Riders: who wins? - Streets Ahead | Acast

Great suggestion
-
It’s all deflection from the seriousness of road danger.
-
Yet some of you object to describing it as a collision…
-
Serious collision on Lordship Lane, hope no one was injured. https://bsky.app/profile/microbear.bsky.social/post/3lh6nktijmk2y

It wasn’t removed by me. Strange
-
I’d expect there to be road re-surfacing given how badly the water leak has broken up the road surface.
-
Completely agree, and if I'm going to use my limited time and energy to draw attention to this issue I'll focus on the biggest and heaviest vehicles which can do the most significant damage. Obvs
-
Regardless of what hit it (clearly something very heavy) I think we can all agree they shouldn't be driving their vehicle onto the pavement and that by doing so it's dangerous.

Should cyclists have the same speed restrictions as motor vehicles?

If only there were technology for mandatory speed limiters on cars, like those required for e-bikes. -
More driver damage on East Dulwich Grove, especially worrying how it’s on the pavement but even more so next to the pedestrian crossing outside Charter East School.
-
Off topic much? Back to the topic of this thread, the new permanent version of Dulwich Square was looking lovely in the sun today. Lots of people seemed to be enjoying spending time there, nice to see!
-
Same happened to me today at that crossing, so many drivers seem to think it’s optional. Two drivers, one after the other ignored me waiting to cross.
-
Another dangerous driver to watch out for.

Old news

Sharing in case anyone witnessed this incident outside Dulwich College this morning

It’s a real shame that Rockets and others here continuously seek to pit two vulnerable groups (pedestrians and cyclists) against each other whilst defending motoring and criticising any challenge of the dominance of the car. This video is a great watch on research into motonormativity, otherwise known as ‘car-brain’. -
