There is a bunch of new double yellows on Hillsboro, at least.

Please note there are two CPZs in East Dulwich but the Council names for the zones doesn?t make that totally clear - one that started on 30 March and another proposed for later in the year. The Peckham West one (Oglander Road etc) started on 30 March and warning notices will be issued for an extended period. This is on the Council?s page on Coronavirus https://www.southwark.gov.uk/health-and-wellbeing/public-health/for-the-public/coronavirus/coronavirus-parking-restrictions-and-controlled-parking-zones


The CPZ that has been put on hold (Monica?s post including the email from Councillor Livingstone) is the one for Lordship Lane.


Enforcement is reduced and looking at what the Council say if you park sensibly you shouldn?t get a penalty. If you park on double yellow lines, in disabled bays or on the footway you can expect a penalty. Rightly in my opinion. Restrictions have been reduced for key workers but not these. I can see they either affect traffic flow - vehicle or those with buggies or there may be blue badge holders who are not shielding or on the vulnerable list who need the disabled bays.


NB the enforcement officers might not be issuing parking tickets. If they are on duty they have to wear their uniform. The Council can redeploy them for example to make sure the 2 metre social distancing is observed in queues. Please think before you have a go at them - they are working with all the contact with the public that entails and don?t have the option to work from home.

Why does the admin feel it's fine to change the title of this post without stating that it has been done?

It's a bit big Brotherly. Just say if you're doing it.

    • I think the Brixton Pound lives on, so there must be some kind of appetite for it, but I'm afraid I doubt it would be very useful for me.
    • My primary issue is the noise level and the fact that it begins at dusk and continues well into the early hours, the odd random bang being possibly the worst aspect as you never know when the next volley will occur. This is no longer about celebrating a turning point as the clock strikes 12am, but more a lengthy indulgence in ear shattering bangs, where there also seems to be competition as to who can create the loudest most startling barrage of sustained noise. A new thing is daytime fireworks, where buyers are urged to forget the visual aspect and focus on getting the biggest bang for their buck. I am lucky as I am not super sensitive to noise but I really feel for those who are. As for pets, I am afraid there are now many that require serious medication to get them through- and those meds are not cheap. The fault here is not with the animals or people sensitive to extreme bangs, but with those who insist on their right to impose it on all around them, not just for half an hour a few times a year, but for hours on customary dates and now  spreading to random events throughout the year.I  New Year fireworks is a very recent construct, and now Halloween Fireworks are becoming a thing. Why should we encourage and condone a proliferating societal noise addiction? It really is isn't healthy. Let those who wish to damage their eardrums enjoy their pastime through headphones; they can turn the volume up as high as they like.  If last night was the end of it then that is great but I think there'll be more through the weekend and more discarded jumbo firework boxes dumped in the park. I hope we follow other countries in adopting low noise fireworks and drone shows instead.    
    • NYE is always like this. If you’re concerned about your pets, please consider seeing a vet as they can help. We give our dog valerian and play calming music, which helps especially after long walks and a big dinner. If it’s for yourself, it’s one night, so also suggest seeing your doctor for advice.  It is loud, although more predictable ( kept to evening:to midnight) than Guy Fawkes celebrations which go on for days and are arguably selfish and inconsiderate. Either way, it’s a very difficult time for many.     
    • Thanks Rowan! Well done you have done amazing on your fitness journey. Happy New Year EDF and all my wonderful clients whom I've had the pleasure to train this year. I'm looking forward to 2026 🙌🎊
