A campaign started by a small group of Dulwich residents for better connectivity between West Dulwich, Dulwich Village and Herne Hill.
For all the details see the website:   dulwichbuscampaign.co.uk   This also includes a petition to sign showing TfL the level of support for the proposal.

Please forward and share the website.

Really? They've had millions of pounds spent on them already installing cycling facilities. 

If it's too hard for them to use their cars now, let them ride their bikes from West Dulwich to Dulwich Village. 

It's what they wanted (and campaigned) for, after all. 

If they physically can't cycle then it's very easy for them to use the hopper fare that the tax payers all subsidise to take two buses for the price of one and make that journey.

Why everyone else should be inconvenienced and asked to subsidise people living in one of the wealthiest and leafiest areas of London because the transport changes they demanded are now proving undesirable, is beyond me.

Cyclists and shoppers in Dulwich Village, having to put up with another bus trundling through, people who use the bus for its existing route, people who use the South Circular, the bus company who has to pay for extra buses drivers and extra fuel, the drivers themselves who would have to drive a longer route, and the drivers of buses on the other routes who would have to pick up extra passengers, putting pressure on their ability to stick to arduous bus timetabling requirements.

Who is 'they'? The people of West Dulwich? 

It seems like a very sensible proposal. It would connect 6 busy schools (which collectively attract literally thousands of journeys every day) with the rail/bus hub at Tulse Hill. There wouldn't be any additional infrastructure required.

Meanwhile, loving CPR Dave's reinvention as a defender of cyclists and Dulwich Villagers oppressed by over-frequent buses. Maybe he forgot which account he was posting to...

    • As I may have said before those that knew him  at DC who I have met sat similar, but not sure if they are quoting the above contacts or first hand experience.  And of course that he has changed the pronunciation of his surname
    • A detailed account of Nigel Farage's alleged racist and neofascist behaviour while he attended Dulwich College appears in the Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/ng-interactive/2025/nov/18/deeply-shocking-nigel-farage-faces-fresh-claims-of-racism-and-antisemitism-at-school Obviously for most the relevant question is if these allegations are true, then is Farage a suitable person for public office? But for Dulwich local yokels (and tbh anyone that's already formed a firm opinion about Farage), the more interesting question might be whether Dulwich College incubated and tolerated pupils' racist and bigoted behaviour at the time? After all, the allegations include that NF and a number of other boys sang songs about gassing Jews and engaged in other bigoted behaviour, that teachers were either present or aware of that behaviour, and that nothing was done. It's remarkable that pieces of the reporting abour 40 years ago mirror some of the allegations about Dulwich College's reaction to some pupils' alleged sexist and predatory behaviour 4 years ago. Minimisation, dismissal, wilful blindness... https://www.thetimes.com/uk/crime/article/i-warned-head-of-dulwich-college-about-abusive-boys-five-years-ago-xkxgjftk8 https://www.theguardian.com/education/2021/mar/26/dulwich-college-head-warns-pupils-over-culture-protest
    • Hi, we've got a random cat at tonight's game. Anyone own it? 
    • Saied (Dulwich Eco Gardening) said he’d give us our garden back and he did. He cleared the overgrown front and back. It was bigger than we remember.    He doesn’t do hard landscaping on the scale we needed but recommended someone (Kris 07938 204480). He flagged and fenced it.    Once we decide what plants/pots we want we’ll have Saied back to do that. Can’t wait for next spring to use the garden.
