Men in full flouro kit with theodolites measuring up for plans that will be used by the council when setting out new road measures in and around Goodrich, they say. (They measure everything so a scale plan can be used by the council when they are deciding on doing whatever they decide to do.)

Southwark Council are asking local residents and businesses for feedback as to whether or not they should keep the 'temporary pavement widening measures on Dunstans and Upland Roads'.


As a local resident, it's the first time I have been asked my opinion on this, one of many, parking, layout and road changes in the vicinity.

Yes - good to be asked. I rarely see anyone make use in great numbers of the widened pavement (which it isn't really - there is still a kerb down) and think it was more use at the beginning of the pandemic when many distancing measures were ebing put in place out of caution).

    • As far as I am aware you have shown no interest in the Gala thread but anything you find to knock a local authority, and no doubt hope that it applies to Southwark LTNs, then off you go. I'd love to hear what you enjoy.  I've been to multiple festivals big and small, in life.  The line up at the Lambeth Show looks good.  Steamdown anyone? It's a balance between many factors, amenity Vs loss of amenity, disruption including noise during the event, damage to the park, income to the local authority during difficult times.  What is your view on these matters, or is it just a case that you smell meat? I cycled in the Massif Central when there was a big creative festival and that smelled of BBQ meat.  Similarly a Portuguese festival at Kensington Park. There are some people round my way who used to complain about the music at the Horniman on a summer Sunday afternoon.  This is not comparable to the disruption due to the Gala, I hasten to add.  But I was stunned at the time thinking how could they have issues with some soul/jazz/afro beat/samba/Latino etc  Shane they don't have the same number of free events any more.  I digress....
    • But I think there are striking similarities between the way Lambeth has managed the Brockwell events and residents therein and the way Southwark has with Gala..... It's how it pastes when you take text from another website (BBC) and is a good way to show that these are someone else's words and not something written by the author! 
    • Do none of you people want anyone to experience joy anywhere near your houses? I've been a local resident for nearly 10 years, and I love that London feels vibrant and alive in the summer and there are festivals and young people enjoying themselves.    Think everyone here needs to take a chill pill 
    • Thread is on the Gala.  Some of you can't help but join in on everywhere else because it suits you.  Sad that some of you get such joy.  And one of you is using large font, it's akin to shouting.
