Denmark Hill is closed all weekend to enable a crane to be dismantled at the Salvation Army training centre.

Buses going northwards are being diverted from Lordship Lane, up East Dulwich grove, then turning right at Dulwich village, past North Dulwich station then into Herne Hill road towards King's College hospital. The same in reverse going Southwards.

It's working well at the moment but there are lots of confused people waiting about even though it's well signposted.

From https://tfl.gov.uk/bus/status/?Input=185 :


CHAMPION PARK SE5; From 06:00 Saturday 29 until 22:00 Sunday 30 October and also 06:00 Saturday 05 until 22:00 Sunday 06 November (weekends only), routes 40 176 185 484 are diverted in both directions due to Crane operation. Stops Denmark Hill Station to Ondine Road are not served. Buses diverted via Denmark Hill, Red Post Hill and East Dulwich Grove.

There are about 3 holes dug up on East Dulwich Grove and temp traffic lights...the holes have been holes for 4 days with no obvious activity at all. So now diverted traffic and buses from this road closure plus the temp lights are making life awful for residents.. not sure Southwark Council gives a flying **** about my road..but avoid if you can.

Can I absolutely reassure you - they don't give a flying etc. about you or your road, and won't even consider doing so for the next 2 and a half years, and probably, considering their electability, not even then.

I was caught in this earlier. Nothing came up on the TFL journey planner. But my bus got to Goose Green then headed up East Dulwich Grove where it came to a halt at the roadworks. For all I know it's still there now.


Dulwich Common is at a standstill as well due to roadworks.


Genius work from our councillors.

    • "Mysterious owners" 😆  If only there was a powerful search engine at our fingertips to find out such deep secrets.        
    • It's the "due to commercial reasons" line again that is vexing. Last year it seemed, although there was a similar level of objection, that the reasons were commercial - Gala didn't appear entirely prepared to run 3 more events, or more likely didn't have sufficient interest from other promoters / organisers who could 'sub-let' the site as with Brockwell Park (I believe?). This year they appeared more organised, had another year to plan & prepare, to the extent they actually had names for two of the three new events which indicated to me that they had third party promoters / organisers in place.  So yes, it does make you wonder whether the repeated level of objection, combined with the impending elections, led to the council 'advising' that maybe they shelve it again? I'm afraid I can't see the whole extension application just being a ruse to guarantee permission for the 'regular' event. Gala are a commercial venture with ambition - every festival's business plan is to expand, expand, expand, year on year on year. Gala won't give up until they have taken over the whole park for a Summer of Raves, and the mysterious owners are on their yachts counting their ££££
    • Thanks for that. Maybe forthcoming elections have stymied the 7 day request? If Labour get back in, do we think GALA will try with greater success in 2027?
    • Better late than never, same obscure reason as previously for not going ahead with the extended plan... "Due to commercial reasons, the event organisers have withdrawn their application to hold a 7- day event over two weekends. The application has been revised to request the use of Peckham Rye Park to hold a 4-day event over one bank holiday weekend with the following schedule: • Onsite: Monday 11 May 2026 • GALA: Friday 22 – Sunday 24 May • On the Rye Festival: BH Monday 25 May • Off-site Sunday 31 May 2026 This is the same event programme that was delivered in 2025."  GALA 2026 consultation findings report 1519.pdf
