It wasn't running up Whatley / Underhill this morning. Frustratingly the TfL live bus arrival website was showing it until about 5 minutes before arrival time when it would disappear. I assume they are just going straight along Lordship Lane towards the library.

They are, I saw one about 10 mins ago by Overhill Road.

Ah, cool... I've been trying to find out for about three weeks if they are doing the raised entry treatment on Whateley! No one ever answers the phone number on the traffic notices.


I didn't think to ask the P13 driver where he's stopping while on diversion when I rode it this morning, I just got off at Sogim to be sure. All he would say was that he was "going straight up Lordship".


I think Whateley is to be closed all week?

I saw it stop at the Overhill Road stop towards New Cross.

I found a status alert on the TfL site... it states:-


"From 08:00 Monday 05 March until 16:00 Thursday 29 March route P13 will be on diversion via Lordship Lane and will not be serving Whateley Road, Underhill Road due to roadworks. Towards Streatham catch bus from North Cross Road or from Grove Tavern. Towards New Cross catch bus from Lordship Lane Estate on Dulwich Common or from Melbourne Grove."


Fyi, the Melbourne Grove bus stop going north (towards Goose Green) is actually in front of the Picturehouse Cinema/gym...


So, it looks like the bus won't stop at the interim Lordship bus stops unless you beg the driver.

March 29th - thats an additional week!!

We've also had a note put through our door from british gas saying theyre going to be upgrading things from the end of the month, anyone know if that means digging up roads - if so that will mean no bus service for a lot longer...

the drivers will (should ) stop at any bus stop along the diversion if you either put your hand out or ring the bell.

  • 2 weeks later...

There has been some work going on there raising the kerb and replacing the pavement at that junction.

    • The BBC is one of the finest, if not the finest, broadcasters in the world.  They have been admired by many across the world for their journalism.  There have been numerous arrests since their recent expose on convenience shops that cover ups for criminals - money laundering, contraband,  illegal workers and the like. By no means perfect and some of what they have done in the modern world is questionable - the website often comes across as tabloid or sensationalist, as do some of their documentaries, and at times it is full of low grade game shows, fly on the wall etc which bring the punters and money, including overseas, in but is not quality TV.  In their desperation for 'balance' they've given too much air time and credibility to some more extreme views, which contributed to Brexit and some of the rise in right wing parties.  I wish they'd say 'the convicted criminal' every time they talk about Yaxley Lenon. The programme was clumsy, why it didn't go through proper clearance including the lawyers, I don't know.  But it created zero stir at the time. Zero.  And had no impact on the election, so Trump has no case.  I hope they don't cave in like many of the US corporations and media.  Oh and well done to South Park using the small p*nis defence in ridiculing him. What I expect is as the Beeb is pretty centrist in it;s reporting in riles some of those who thrive on the toxic populism we have seen since Trump mark 1 and Brexit.  How sad.
