I have water tonight despite the road closure though still not sure I'll risk a washing load!


I do wonder if there's any scope to bring the permanent works that are due to start on 16 Feb forward rather than do yet another temporary repair.

Buses now on diversion until Sunday evening.


LORDSHIP LANE, SE22: Routes 176 185 and 197 are diverted until 2000 Sunday 10 February via Barry Road, Peckham Rye, Forest Hill Road and Honor Oak Road due to emergency waterworks on Lordship Lane, and buses are unable to serve stops between Dulwich Library and Horniman Museum.

Count your blessings this afternoon a 185 on it's apparent way to Lewisham decided to go OFF route

from Honor Oak Road,

left into Tyson rd,

left onto Devonshire road,

left onto Boveney road,

left into Hengrave road,

left onto Honor Oak Road,

right and back down Forest Hill Road,

left onto Woodvale all the way to the end,

finally left back onto London Road/ Lordship lane.


The back roads of SE23 are not designed for buses as the driver found out to his cost, having to manoeuvre some very, very tight corners to get around. Doubt he'll be repeating it, and what those living on teh back streets thought when the 185 went doen the roads, I have no idea.

The P13 is currently diverted away from Peckham Rye due to Rye Lane gas works. Personally depending on which part of LL they're going to, I'd get them to change at Peckham Rye for a Southern train to East Dulwich and then bus from there or walk.


They can also walk from Peckham Rye station to Peckham Bus Station where they can get the 37 or P13 to the Goose Green end.

P13 was normal route towards Streatham.

Thanks all. They are coming to Underhill below Melford Rd stop, but were thinking about stopping off on LL to pick up something en route. They might decide to take overland to PR and 363 down instead.


It does feel rather like a magical mystery tour, you're right Applespider!

If the bus is on a diversion I don't think they will stop .


Having said that I did see a P ( something 4 ? ) stop on Barry Rd yesterday ,but I think that was just that driver exercising discretion/anarchy .

    • 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.
