The P13 bus is on diversion due to a new bus stop being erected in Sainsburys DKH.  There are no notices on affected bus stops and no announcements on the buses.  Diversion is - from Peckham, the bus turns left from Pytchley Road on to DKH, so not a big issue.  But going towards Peckham, the bus seems to be diverting via Goose Green/ Peckham Rye because it can't turn right into Pytchley Rd.  There is nothing on TFL website, so don't know how long this will be.  Incidentally, the 42 bus is still running into Sainsburys!

You would have thought that local Cllrs would have posted this on the forum as so many people in Dulwich and Peckham use this service.

Remember many elderly people do not have Iphones to get this news after waiting at bus stops for god knows how long.

This is a weird complaint. I'm not sure if you're the same person who made it last time there is a similar bus diversion.

Councillors can't just spend all their time posting on forums about anything that vaguely relates to their constituency even if it doesn't relate to their responsibilities. Their access to bus stop closure information (!) is just the same as yours. This is a TfL question and they're the only ones able to publish reliable information.

Besides, if your point is that OAPs don't have iPhones to access the TfL information, how would they be accessing the East Dulwich Forum? (All the OAPs I know are constantly on Facebook anyway...)

When I was there at lunch time today the work was well underway and they seemed to be finishing the final works so hopefully tomorrow the bus stop may have "re-opened". 

There was enough space for the P13 to have gone to an alternative location in the car park to drop off and pick up passengers today. It was sheer laziness by TfL not to make alternative arrangements.

      Tree Dulwich Park

      This presumably hasn't been done by vandals. It's hardly a Sycamore Gap situation. So if it's been done by professionals, unless it was a mistake (unlikely) there must have been a good reason, as it would have cost money. It would perhaps have been a good idea to put a notice on the tree explaining why such drastic work was done, but usually (I think) it would be either because of disease (often not noticeable on the surface) or that the roots or branches  were endangering nearby structures. As already said, nobody on here is likely to know. The tree department in Southwark Council are helpful in my (admittedly limited) experience. Please post on here when you have found out, as I agree what's left of the tree looks pretty odd. Depending on why the work was done, possibly they intend to remove the rest as well?

      SIM card for spare mobile

      By Sue · Posted

      I have a very stupid question. I want to get a SIM card to put in an old mobile as a back up,  in case despite my best efforts my mobile gets stolen and I have no way of contacting anybody quickly, eg banks. Can I just buy any old cheap pay as you go  SIM card and put say ten pounds on it and it will then be fine for years (with the phone kept charged!) even if I don't use it, or do I have to use the phone  every so often to keep the SIM card valid?

      I hate to see trees cut down to such an unfinished state. Unless the tree is home to wildlife, an effort should be made to remove & replace. Otherwise, it's just so useless & unsightly.

      Given the level of care in Dulwich Park, I would not expect this to be careless or unnecessary. It will grow back.
