The closure and works will take approx 3 months we have been informed.

Can Southwark explain where residents are expected to park with all the parking restrictions in place. Parking is already full in other streets quite some way from Chadwick Road.

It means many people with disabilities will find life very very difficult.

What's going on with the roadworks on Townley Road at the junction of EDG?

i tried to take an alternative route in an Uber to get to Denmark Hill - to avoid goose green - but then got stuck in these instead! Have these appeared recently?

First thing this morning (8.00am) traffic lights were installed at the junction of Wood Vale and Langton Rise - and switched on.  A section of road in Wood Vale was coned off. So far (13.30) there has not been any sign of any workmen doing anything. By all means install the lights in advance, if that works best for you, but don't switch them on, or cone off a section of road, until workmen arrive. Unless you really really couldn't care less for the taxpayers who are paying your wages - oh, but of course, you don't - Southwark or Lewisham (the works are on the border) apparat, do you?

You will be pleased that there  were workers there yesterday, I didn't confirm their gender but to be safe, apart from reference to the subpostmasters's scandal where the term applies to both genders, I use gender neutral words for professions.  There were no long queues of traffic, so nothing really to go on about.  In fact I'm not sure why I am posting.

Edited, inspected and a really nice repair to the road, well down Conway, I may send them a nice email.  It's good to have some positivity!

Can you stop using the word gender when you mean sex.

I think gender is appropriate:

(AI view): Sex and gender are distinct concepts, though they are often confused. Sex generally refers to biological characteristics like chromosomes, hormones, and reproductive organs, while gender encompasses a person's internal sense of self as male, female, or non-binary, and the social and cultural roles associated with each.

OED says similar.  A lounge conversation,

Traffic lights, (3 - way) Junction of Woodvale with Melford Road this morning, 06/08/25

Another road closed this morning. Chadwick Road/Grove Park closed. From the amount of barriers looks like being for a long time.

Forgot to add no entry through to Camberwell Grove SE5

Any idea wht the impact re-routing will be for P13?

No impact, the P13 doesn't use the Underhill to Woodvale stretch of Melford. However that stretch of road is used by the 363 (both ways), but traffic is flowing relatively freely at the moment, but the work that the lights are for is on the south bound Woodvale just north of the roundabout there. When it starts. That will slightly hold up the 363 as it routes to Crystal Palace.

More serious is the A205 (South Circular) entirely blocked just west of Alleyn Park Road for a block - I'm guessing emergency water works but I couldn't get close enough to confirm.

Yes, I cycled up to Tootling and back, massive crater on the South Circ, then further lights up before Tulse Hill - may be connected, and as for Streatham High Road....  Clearly Lambeth and Southwark have it in for motorists.  They should coordinate their road works with Thames Water's catastrophic failures of the water mains.

      Assistance Dogs - Autism: any experiences?

      By JMK · Posted

      https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.

      Missing Cat

      By jeffersjd · Posted

      Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
