My wife just had a nightmare getting home from Denmark Hill train station. She was told there a lot of roads closed and buses are struggling to get through


Just found this about whats happened


http://www.itv.com/news/london/story/2012-04-03/camberwell-explosion/


Just thought it would be helpful for people trying to get home to know. Guess Forest Hill is the best alternative for most of us

Came past it on the 176. Fire in a building behind a hair salon immediatly to the left of the Camberwell Sexual Health Clinic.


We got through because it had only just broken out, one Police car on scene at that point, Fire Engines came belting down Denmark Hill as we drove on.

Rte's 40,176 & 185 are diverted from Lordship Lane via

East Dulwich Grove - Rye Lane - (rtn via Peckham High St - Claytob Rd - Hanover Pk) - Peckham Road -

Camberwell Rd LOR


Rte 484 curtail to East Dulwich Sainsbury's



Rte 345 - curtailed to Brixton Stockwell Pk Walk

You mean East Dulwich Road, not Grove.

Your quite right. I suspect that it was typed up quickly as the incident was happening and someone got there Groves and Road muddled. I am sure the buses went the correct way.

13 non sarcastic/caustic/rude etc comments in a row just too many to cope with southmark? Well done for making the first one. Hopefully you feel better now.


I for one have given myself a good talking to about what a heartless individual I am for trying to help other forum users get home. It's comments like that, that stop people bothering to post on here.


The point of the post was about the state of public transport and how to get home, not the particular incident. Of course we are all concerned for anyone that has been affected, I thought that would go without saying, but apparently not.


I look forward to your next attempt to make everyone feel bad/small

    • I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?
    • To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
    • Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
    • interesting the police said "the car was in demand at the moment" what make/model is that?
