We just received one for St John?s and St Clement?s which would close parts of Adys, Ondine and Amott. Given how terrible traffic is in the morning with aggressive drivers smacking their horns I?m in favour. Having a camera filter is better than a hard barrier like they have for Bellenden Primary.

School streets are not new. Southwark has been doing them since 2018 and the proposal includes exemptions for residents and emergency vehicles.

It?s only for a short period and how many children are driven to school when they don?t need to be?

One consideration for some when choosing a house is local schools, for me it?s not on a street with a school and I don?t drive at school drop off time if I can avoid it.

A walk before school is not going to harm most children and planning to allow time to walk to school is good for them to understand you can?t get up late and get in the car and make it on time. Though from what I see walking might be quicker than driving. If children walk to school then walking to East Dulwich or Denmark Hill station to catch the train to work rather than jumping on the bus might be their choice in later life. Families might need to adapt their routine but it won?t be the only change made for having a child in your life. It might even be good - less time sat in traffic, time to talk, watch the seasons - trees, birds.

I'm affected by the Adys Road proposal.


I'm broadly for it, but wonder how much the permit will cost - if at all -the parking costs are already so expensive. I'm also wondering how will it affect visitors and workmen to my house; will they be allowed temporary permits? This info is not given in the letter.

I?ve completed the consultation asking a similar question about permits. I?m particularly concerned about who is eligible for permits as I live a few houses up from the start of the restriction but regularly have to park in the restricted area due to a lack of spaces outside my house. The wording isn?t clear about if I?d be eligible or not. Also the only electric car charger in the surrounding streets is in the restriction.

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant.
