A car appears to have gone South West from Grove Hill Road over the lights and then "missed" its entry into Champion Hill only to go half way through a wall on the corner of Grove Lane. To me that's what appears to have happened - must've been going at some pelt to get the car that far through the wall. So DKH northbound closed for a while
Traffic is u-turning at the lights and coming back down grove vale -so extremely heavy all along grove vale to goose green roundabout / lordship lane and then onto ED Grove. Busses diverted along ED Grove - also busy along Calton / Townley etc as Waze adapts routes to allow for this.
As of 20 minutes ago the stretch was still closed, even with no signs of any debris or people in the road, just a car bonnet-shaped hole in a brick wall. Better open it soon or Southwark CPZ planners will claim it's a rewilding project.

Presumably it was heading north and hit the wall at an angle.

    • It's a case of who blinks first.  But  purchasers who do this will lose all good will form the owner and will probably suffer aife changing accident as the Gods won't be smiling on them.
    • well - that is disappointing. We know the impact of foreign buyers on the housing market.
    • I much prefer Romeo Jones to >spit< Gail's, but I'm struggling to blame this on the LTN when nothing outside Romeo Jones has changed, the LTN came in 5 (!!!) years ago, and Gail's has queues out the door most days. It also is directly opposite Rocca (which serves coffee and has seating), next door to Porters (which serves coffee and has seating), a few doors along from Real Greek (which serves coffee and has seating), and diagonally across from Gail's (which serves coffee and sells baked goods and has seating). I'll be sorry to see Romeo Jones go (not least because I have a stack of stamped loyalty cards). I don't want to criticise small business owners because it's a tough old racket, but DVillage never really seemed to find its niche either as a proper deli (like La Gastronomia or The Sicilian in West Dulwich) or as a coffee shop (which is difficult when you have Megan's and Redemption right next to you, and Au Ciel around the corner).
    • Hopefully we will see something like Melbourne Grove, where all the shops that initially closed after the road closures were then replaced with new ones. I think all the units on that street are now finally open for business.
