They?ve either not looked at it or are deliberately ignoring it. I?ll call and chase tomorrow.

Thanks First mate, saved me typing, the lights were irrelevant here. Traffic was to station and to roundabout. It isn't like that all the time but much more often since planters. Also what's with all the multi coloured paint on road by planters, looks like all about to be dug up or changed again?

And still we hear nothing from the council. This is what happened at Loughborough Junction, council ignored the feedback from residents on what was going on and then had to wait until the emergency services told them their road closures were endangering lives (well they ignored them to begin with until the local MP intervened at the behest of the ambulance services).


Southwark and our local councillors seem to have their heads in the sand too, hoping the problem evaporates....

Agreed. I would also be very keen to understand the knock on impact on bus travel times. Presumably this is something that TFL monitor.

    • Defo, where are you based so I can collect?
    • There is no other way than to move out. I am in such a situation myself where our neighbours are complete assholes. They breached the Covenants and when we pointed it they said to take them to court if we want.  Unfortunately, they have made our life miserable and we have to move out.    What helped in our situation is having a calm conversation face to face. It only happened after they tasted their own medicine(i know it's mean but nothing else helps).   I know it's unfair but better move out and prioritise your mental health. 
    • Thank you so much for the reply. Jeffery turned up a couple of hours ago. I edited title to say found but somehow it didn't save. Thank you so much for going to the trouble of posting this sighting... even if it didn't turn out to be Jeff.  Jeff came running down the street like a bat out of hell and ran into the house. Never been so relieved. Mind you i've been up and down the roads shouting his name out all day. Even in Wingfield street. 🤗
    • I saw a smallish black cat outside 1 Wingfield Street just now.  I am not convinced it was Jeff, the eyes look a little different.
