Spartacus Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 That's going to be interesting for the 37 bus 🫣 EAST DULWICH GROVE, SE22: Route 37 is on diversion in both directions via Herne Hill, Denmark Hill, Champion Park, Grove Lane and Grove Vale due to Thames Water works. Buses towards Putney Heath/Green Man will not serve stops ‘Derwent Grove’(B) to ‘Herne Hill’(E). Buses towards Peckham Bus Station will not serve stops ‘Herne Hill’(D) to ‘Derwent Grove’(U). Please allow extra time for your journey. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/333566-east-dulwich-grove-closed/#findComment-1639977 Share on other sites More sharing options...
alice Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 In the interest of fair play would a re routed 37 travel down court lane etc. 3 1 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/333566-east-dulwich-grove-closed/#findComment-1639979 Share on other sites More sharing options...
first mate Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 So TW have managed in just a few months to close Lordship Lane and now EDG? We probably need fewer side returns, second and third bathrooms, and more investment in pipe by TW.

Harry Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 East Dulwich Grove is closed outside the old hospital site owing to Thames Water digging up the road again Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/333566-east-dulwich-grove-closed/#findComment-1639990 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelina Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Maybe with all the revelations about their shocking debt and equal payments to shareholders, that they are having to be seen to do something? Or do they just do superficial recurring fixes?

Angelina Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Thames Water are beyond awful. So much money paid in dividends, so much debt, so little investment. 1 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/333566-east-dulwich-grove-closed/#findComment-1639993 Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard tudor Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 What is happening to the 42? have a hospital app at Tessa Jewell. Have walking problem thanks Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/333566-east-dulwich-grove-closed/#findComment-1639994 Share on other sites More sharing options...
northernmonkey Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 I'd imagine it will follow the same diversion as the 37 @richard tudor - theres no where for the bus to turn round so won't be going to the hospital. Closest stop is probably Elsie or the station and then using the cut through path from Melbourne Grove north end by the charter school entrance on Jarvis Road.

sunbob Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 1 hour ago, richard tudor said: Thank you for this information but did not understand a word you were saying. Get a bus to East Dulwich Station, then walk up Melbourne Grove, take the first on the right into Jarvis Road. It's a cul-de-sac with a school at the end, but at the end there is a footpath off to the left which leads into the car park of Tessa Jowell health centre. It's still a way if you have trouble walking, but might be the closest bus stop.

OutOfFocus Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 (edited) This is my understanding of 37 route (having been on it today). Red is current route, blue normal I don't represent TFL Thames water or anyone else !! https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright Edited September 27, 2023 by OutOfFocus Add copyright notice 1 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/333566-east-dulwich-grove-closed/#findComment-1640023 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartacus Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Is this going to increase traffic going towards and using the south circular as East Dulwich Grove is an alternative route to Brixton or Tulse Hill ?

ianr Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 (edited) And here, following OOF's more skilful example, is my graphic version (orange line) of the 42 diversion., my understanding being that south of King's College Hospital, it uses Dog Kennel Hill in both directions. It's superimposed on TFL's own map of the usual route (red line). No mention here yet of normality restored, so I hope I'm not out-of-date.

malumbu Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Back to Thames Water why did many of us well over 40 rejoice in the privatisation water and other utilities under Thatcher and particular Major and even under Blair whilst we made a quick buck. I didn't buy any shares .... Serves us right!

OutOfFocus Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 37 seems to be back on its normal route. But i Will keep my map for the (un?) likely event of a repeat.
