The results of an independent survey show that the residents of East Dulwich Grove are overwhelmingly against making the temporary road closures and traffic restrictions in Dulwich permanent. Not at all surprising given that the LTNs have displaced traffic and therefore increased pollution on the road. Full results here: https://eastdulwichgrove.com/


Also a reminder that the Council?s consultation on the LTNs closes this Sunday 11th July. Here?s the consultation: https://consultations.southwark.gov.uk/environment-leisure/dulwich-review/

Sure, I get that people are against the closures, and want their voices heard. I don't think it furthers the anti-LTN cause though to keep on opening new threads on the subject.

There's a bit of info in the survey.


Face-to-face surveys with households in on East Dulwich Grove took place during June 2021. An independent external marketing company collected resident feedback for impartiality and confidentiality.

In addition, a card was posted through residents? doors with information on how they could still share their feedback if they were not at home.


Feedback was gathered from the following sources: ➔ Email ➔ Online Questionnaire ➔ Postcard (example to the right) completed in person or dropped off at a local address

From the EDG website https://eastdulwichgrove.com/content/uploads/2021/07/East-Dulwich-Grove__-LTN-Survey-Results-2.pdf page 5:


"Face-to-face surveys with households in on East Dulwich Grove took place during June 2021. An independent external marketing company collected resident feedback for impartiality and confidentiality."

Here?s some further background. An external company, Drew London, were commissioned by the East Dulwich Grove Residents group to independently carry out the survey. Drew London canvassed the 236 households on EDG and gathered responses from 125 of these households. They analysed the data and provided their independent report to the residents group without interference. No residents were involved in the canvassing or creation and publishing of the report.

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
