I believe it's being investigated as an alternative to extending the 63 to Honor Oak Park station, as there no standing room for a bus there, so instead they were talking about extending the 172 past Honor Oak Park and around to Forest Hill Road. I'm not sure how far it would be travelling on from there.

Considering I've seen four 63's parked up on Forest Hill Road recently, I don't think the 172 would have enough space there.


Peckham Rye has a spare stand at the moment, although that is currently used for short running buses on the 12, 37, 63, P12 and 197.

No, you were referring to Honor Oak Park station.


If it were a Tube station it would have a Tube line through it, which it doesn't.


If it were in Honor Oak, it would not be in Honor Oak Park, which it is.

It's amazing the places that ARE on the tube network these days...

Quite! The Tube map only shows TfL-managed services.


But then as lots of the Underground is overground and quite a bit of the Overground is underground, maybe I should stop worrying and love the bomb/get out more...

Don't get your hopes up! I would have expected that the Peckham Rye Councillors (hoped?) would be consulted/contacted about any plans to extend the 172. I've heard nothing, we are still continuing with the extend the 63 campaign. The reason that so far we have had no success, is on the grounds of cost. (Boris, unfortunately, has not been supportive). I doubt if it was too costly to extend the 63 4 stops, it would be any cheaper to extend the 172 from the Brockley Rise end.

    • I’m in exactly the same position.  They badgered me for ages to have a water meter fitted.  I’d prevaricated simply because it’s so tedious dealing with these people but eventually gave in when the communications became increasingly frequent and aggressive and it was done in March 2023. I just assumed I’d then be charged on actual consumption but I received an email this morning with details of the latest price increase and it said, “Since your property doesn’t have a water meter, your bill is calculated in advance based on fixed rates rather than water usage”.  I’m sure they’ve realised I’d be paying much less if they billed me on actual consumption but have not gone out of their way to inform me.  Trawling through their website, for me anyway, is an unutterably tedious chore, but I think I’ll now have to work up the energy over the weekend to pick up the phone on Monday morning and have a word with them.  
    • Great Service again from Andy.  Contacted him with a couple of issues with toilet cistern and shower.  He came over and sorted it all out quickly. Good advice given, reasonable charge for the jobs.  Highly recommend Andy!   
    • Just seen this.  Your post was a bit unnecessary.  I was simply responding to the previous post that children should be cycling on the pavement. But as you say I know shed loads about transport.  Not to the depths that some go down to the minutia.  Some call me the space cowboy.  Some call me the gangster of love.  I think of myself as the people's poet.  You have to laugh at yourself. Echoing what DKH said, we weren't there, you don't know the parent was making a snide remark, My favourite Dulwich parent story was a few years ago were friends when we were in the Herne garden a few years ago, who let their children run riot.  Bless.  One decided to turn the hose on spraying some poor drinkers.  Now most of us would be mortified, but the friends welcomed their child's creativity.
