No buses: Lordship Lane

[NewDad]

There is a "police incident" on the south end of Lordship Lane (Barry Road area). No buses are currently running on Lordship Lane between Goose Green and Barry Road (on diversion).

Not sure how long this will last, but best to walk to Elsie Road stop to catch the bus.

Thanks for the heads up. Thought it was a bit quiet outside this morning!

Was just about to post this myself. Must be something quite serious to close the road :(

From BBC Travel news 06.55:

A2216 Lordship Lane East Dulwich, both ways between B219 Barry Road and Landells Road

A2216 London - A2216 Lordship Lane in East Dulwich closed in both directions between the B219 Barry Road junction and the Landells Road junction, because of a serious accident. Diversion in operation - for buses 40, 176 and 185.

For those wanting to get to Denmark Hill buses are running from the Elsie Rd stop.

According to the signs at the bus stops there are also buses running from Barry Rd too though might be useful if someone else could confirm this?

[KidKruger]

LL cordoned-off at Plough end of junction by Dulwich library. You can still go South to FH from that junction, or cross from Barry Rd to Dulwich park area.

Looks like may open soon as pranged car and motorbike been loaded onto recovery wagon.

When I left our house opposite Sainsbury's on Lordship this morning at 0600, there was a Met Blue Tent outside the roofers, a damaged motorcycle and signs of a major injury. By the time the family were up the traffic was flowing again and all was back to normal. Speed cameras are needed near the junction of Lordship and Barry Road, stating the obvious. It's like a racetrack.

Agreed! We live opposite the Sainsbury's too and it's extremely dangerous, people seem to fly down there!

I live near the bottom of LL and traffic flies up and down there even at that point. Especially late at night

[lordshipjones]

Just heard it was a fatality. RIP.

[KidKruger]

Yeah I just seen signs up at the end of Landells and on LL near there, asking for information from witnesses.

Time quoted was 1.10am, not too many folks around at that time on a Tuesday I'd expect.
