Does anyone know why the green arrow on the lights at the Barry Road - Lordship Lane junction (by the Plough)


i.e. when you are turning right into Barry Road from Lordship Lane by the Dulwich Library - there used to be a green arrow here, but whilst the light are still there, it seems the signal has been turned off. Any ideas why?


Thanks!

I don't think it's ever been an all-day feature. Sometimes it's there, sometimes it isn't, and I've not worked out exactly when or why. It's a TfL-controlled junction (the number for reporting faults goes through to TfL), so it'll be run by their big computer. Which means it could be down to anything, and not necessarily on purpose.
Living close to this junction i can advise that the green filter light seems to operate during rush hours but not consistently so. What is annoying is that the traffic lights for those coming un Barry Road from the Rye only allow 2 cars and i bus through before changing. Sometimes it can take me over 5 mins to turn right into LL to get to work. I now take the longer route via Barry Road, Upland/Underhill and Crystal Palace Road to get to GRove Vale - takes me about 5 mins longer but I am at least moving and not stuck at the lights.

    • They've left all kinds of things in my garden including gardening gloves and shoes, not to mention scavenged food and packaging. Once they left an unopened vacuum pack of smoked trout, the next day some pita bread. All a bit biblical.
    • From memory foxes only became a regular sight in the 90s, the attached article says they first appeared in the 30s becoming far more common in the 80s.  Apparently, whilst we think that urban foxes live longer than rural due to their 'easy' life few will make it over the age of two.  In towns they are far more crowded than their natural habitat where they are more territorial. I've never seen foxes and cats fighting but once saw two cats squaring up to each other and a watching fox went up and butted its head against one of the cats.  There's a video on youtube of a cat and fox facing off when the cat is eating outside, but it wont let me embed on this post.  Get too close and I'll scratch you. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/oct/15/urban-foxes-are-they-fantastic-or-a-growing-menace My main issue is leaving things out like gardening gloves and they go or are shredded.  One stole a bag of bird food in front of me, took it next door, shredded the bag and then left it.  
    • I was trying to remember when Franklins moved to Lordship Lane from Walworth Road where it was combined with an antique/bric a brac shop. Mid 1990s, first wave ED gentrification?
