Hi all,

I might be a little late to the party but does anyone know why the end of Melbourne Grove was closed off? I get it to an extent why the other roads were closed off since they were residential, but surely Melbourne Grove should not of been closed off because of the shops and the school. Wouldn't that also affect the businesses as well?

Have a look at the Melbourne Grove South CPZ. Southwark decided to make MG North a CPZ and then an LTN. Now they are also making the rest of MG, and few other streets a CPZ this coming October, despite a majority against in the last consultation.

The details on process are a bit unclear. Wording in a document on the matter I viewed online in June stated the new reduced CPZ would be subject to statutory consultation. So far there has been no further consultation but Cllt Charlie Smith recently announced it had all been agreed. If anyone can explain, I'd be grateful.

Anyway, reasons for blocking the road are all part of this grand scheme.

    • Full fibre has not been rolled out for many areas in ED and there are currently no plans to extend ☹️
    • Why would the OP approach Southwark now the damage has been done? Very shocking!  
    • You'll get large thermal swings with south facing glass, even triple glazed and high efficiency glass. Spent some time in a grand designs listed property with modern high tech glass extension and still had huge thermal swing in the extension. Shutters and awnings that shade the windows are most effective.  Temporary canvas sail type awnings are low cost and effective (will need replacing every few years). For upper floors internal cheese cloth style roller blinds are low cost and effective at reducing sun glare heat. For Velux, the black out blinds with the reflective layer significantly reduce heat, though they also stop the light.  We had the external Velux motorised shutters at previous house and they made a huge difference to thermal gain and lose, but blocked the light. For fixed roof windows, try hanging an oversized internal white canvas shade. Weather permitting, open loft / upper floor Velux windows and lower window to use chimney effect air flow from ground to loft to help cool house. Hope this helps
    • No one on here is likely to know are they? better approach Southwark Council for a sensible response and then maybe post it here?
