I drove through townley Road during the time restriction, but because it was in the Easter holidays I thought as other areas were wavering restriction for off term time I thought this was also the case as the sign doesn't say , (At all times ) any comments would be greatly appreciated. 

  • Joe changed the title to Townley road school restriction

I'm afraid people are going to keep being caught out thinking that when the roads are quiet in school holidays/Easter/Xmas the restrictions don't apply. 

I was fined on Boxing Day which was a Monday. I had a reasonably constructive email correspondence with a councillor who seemed to acknowledge that maybe the restrictions were not needed as much during school holidays but said a change could not be implemented as the school holidays were not aligned. 

I suggested that Southwark Could at the very least suspend the restrictions on Bank holidays as all schools are closed on Bank holidays but didn't receive a reply.

I imagine with the current run of May Bank holidays Southwark's coffers are due to be topped up. 

 

 

 

Saw loads of cars heading towards a fine in Dulwich Village yesterday as they drove through the restrictions during the operating hours - oblivious to the fact that the restrictions also apply on bank holidays - an expensive assumption to make and one the council is more than happy to accept!

Townley Road is not a School Street. 

Not sure how you'd put the entire school calendar on a street sign anyway...

Where did I say Townley was a school street....I said it's what happens when you conflate school streets with other timed restrictions i.e. when in some areas you mix school streets that operate during school times and with others that do not...hope that clarifies itfor you! 😉

    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.   
    • Everyone gets the point that Corbynites try to make with the "total number of votes cast" statistic, it's just a specious one.  In 2017, Corbyn's Labour got fewer votes than May's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes). In 2019, Corbyn's Labour fewer votes than Johnson's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes); and he managed to drop 2.7 million votes or 6.9% of vote share between the two elections. I repeat, he got trounced by Boris F***ing Johnson and the Tories after the Brexit omnishambles. It is not true that a "fairer" electoral system would have seen Labour beat the Tories: Labour simply got fewer votes than the Tories. Corbyn lost twice. There is no metric by which he won the general election. His failure to win was a disaster for the UK, and let Johnson and Truss and Sunak into office. Corbynites have to let go of this delusion that Corbyn but really won somehow if you squint in a certain way. It is completely irrelevant that Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer. It is like saying Hull City was more successful in its 2014 FA Cup Final than Chelsea was in its 2018 FA Cup Final, because Hull scored 2 goals when Chelsea only scored 1. But guess what - Chelsea won its game and Hull City lost. Corbyn's fans turned out to vote for him - but an even larger group of people who found him repellant were motivated enough to show up and vote Tory.
