Trains and other transport running this morning? [The TravelWatch in the Snow Official thread]


Recommended Posts

I got in around 3.30. At that point, the 185/176 were being diverted to go through Peckham rather than up DKH. They were then coming along LL and all the way up to the Horniman. It was a long and slow diversion through Peckham though so if you're trying to get to town (and really really NEED to go), it might be quicker to walk to Brixton and hop on the Tube.

Bus routes tonight that are curtailed or diverted in the SE22 area (data from the TfL website)


176: Tottenham Court Road to Camberwell only.


63: Kings Cross to Peckham Rye.


363: Elephant to Honor Oak.


P4: Diverted away from Honor Oak.


BBC London 94.9 also reports that buses in our area will finish earlier tonight than normal.

After being told by a 40 bus driver there were no buses going down DKH, I alighted at Camberwell Green, hailed a black taxi which then sailed past a 176 going down DKH ! Neither taxi or bus had any problems going down the hill.

Well for what it's worth ,when I was driving last night at 9.30 the main roads were perfectly driveable .

In the main I stuck to bus routes ,but Court Lane ,Eynella etc were all fine .

It didn't actually seem that cold and the gritted roads weren't freezing .

Not much help I know to this mornings debate .

Just drove back from Brighton. Roads are all driveable, but of course there are icy and snowy patches, so don't drive unless it's essential. Buses are running (I saw a 176 and a 185 along LL).
Not many of the London Bridge trains are running but the half hourly Sevenoaks to Victoria (stopping at Peckham Rye and Denmark Hill) is running fine and on time. I've used it to go into town and back today.

    • Another recommendation for Dulwich Test and Services Centre. Only been using them for a couple of years but wish I’d found them earlier 
    • A new roadmap (surely railmap?!) for rail accessibility has been published: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/accessible-railways-roadmap It says "approximately 56% of stations and around 66% of the 1.3 billion journeys that take place on the network have step-free access to platforms...  "£373 million has been committed over the next 5 years to deliver Access for All projects, providing step-free access from station entrances to and between platforms, alongside other essential accessibility upgrades. These works, together, will increase the number of step-free stations across Great Britain from 56% to 58%. "This improvement will make travel easier with step-free access available at stations covering an increased share of total rail journeys – from 66% up to 71%" Don't know what that means for us here: upgrading Peckham Rye would cover a lot of rail journeys but the cost has no doubt increased from the £40m figure previously quoted. So that would eat into a lot of the funding.
