ctovey Posted September 30 Author Share Posted September 30 Quote Same today (Tuesday) . The repairs were done last night and there is no-one working there this morning. Don't really know why the buses are diverted as the road is still open to traffic and there is only a very small area being worked on.

spider69 Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 A neighbour told me the same thing this morning. He could not understand why the bus has had to be diverted. There was plenty of room for buses to use. 1 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/367827-p13-on-diversion-now-back-on-route/#findComment-1722184 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctovey Posted October 2 Author Share Posted October 2 P13 still on diversion. No work has been done by Thames Water since Monday and the traffic is still flowing - apart from the bus, of course!!!

ctovey Posted October 2 Author Share Posted October 2 Thanks Spider69. I did contact TFL also, but had no response yet. Guessing buses will be running again before a response is forthcoming!

Best wishes, Jasmine Received this response from TFL today (15 October) Thank you for contacting us on 1 October regarding the ongoing diversion of the P13 bus route between Rye Lane and Sainsbury’s, Dog Kennel Hill, since 29 September. You’re absolutely right that the diversion is due to Thames Water works in the area. While other traffic may appear to be flowing freely along Avondale Rise into Ivanhoe Road, our local Service Delivery Manager has confirmed that buses are unable to safely make the turn from Avondale Rise into Ivanhoe Road in either direction. This is due to the size and turning radius of the vehicles, which differs significantly from that of smaller vehicles. We understand that diversions can be inconvenient and appreciate your patience while this work is ongoing. We’re continuing to monitor the situation closely and will restore the usual route as soon as it is safe and operationally feasible to do so. Thanks again for contacting us. If there is anything else we can help you with, please reply to this email. Alternatively, you can call us on 0343 222 1234 and we'll be happy to help you. 1 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/367827-p13-on-diversion-now-back-on-route/#findComment-1723795 Share on other sites More sharing options...
