We are sorry that there is a view expressed on the East Dulwich Forum that Village Ward councillors have not been active on the issue of the proposed no right turn at the Townley Road /East Dulwich Grove junction. This has been the number one issue since the proposals were issued last year. We have been in touch with existing and newly created local residents associations, we have held a meeting and had discussions with various council officers, in addition to responding to as many individual constituents enquiries as possible. At the Dulwich Community Council meeting at the end of last year we were instrumental in ensuring the voices of those present were heard ahead of Councillors, so that the concerns were fully expressed. Jane alone has had a current total of more than 200 emails on the topic in recent months.


Because we represent Village Ward we sometimes forget our constituents with SE22 postcodes may turn to the East Dulwich Forum for information. Please be assured we are very much aware of this issue and perhaps just need to get a bit sharper at communicating this more widely.


Best wishes

Cllr Jane Lyons

Locking this and linking to the "Consultation on ?improving? the junction of East Dulwich Grove, Townley Road and Green Dale2 http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,1426742,page=1 so that the discussion doesn't split into two areas.

    • Its a few years ago now, but I organised my end of year prom (for year 13) at Off the Cuff in Herne Hill - was on the cheaper side to rent and at that age, felt very cool and clubby. I had my own 18th at Whirled Cinema in Loughborough Junction but I'm not sure if they take event bookings like that anymore 
    • You are right . It isn't going to change him for the better. Sending such a negative message is potentially counter-productive. Trump is narcissistic, arrogant, unpredictable, spiteful, divisive, and dishonest, with a penchant for a total a disregard for democratic norms.  He is one who bears a grudge so there's a case to be made for not offending him as he could react with a bunch of  adverse actions  such as  deciding to increase import tariffs on UK exports to the US.      
    • Unless we don't fly I don't think we can be too critical of the authorities.  
    • In 2016 London City Airport began using concentrated flight paths. When there's a predominantly westerly wind, incoming aircraft approach from East London (north of the River). When there's a predominantly Easterly wind, incoming aircraft approach the airport from the West: circling through Forest Hill, Dulwich, Vauxhall, Tower Hamlets, Docklands. This latter flight path affects many of us in South East London. https://www.london.gov.uk/who-we-are/what-london-assembly-does/questions-mayor/find-an-answer/london-city-airport-concentrated-flight-paths The planes going into City are often below 2,000 ft, so very noisy. Sometimes we have incoming Heathrow at the same time, flying higher. The early flights that I hear e.g. 04:30 are incoming to Heathrow. They are scheduled to land at 05:30 but are 'early'. Apparently the government allows a percentage of flights to arrive early and late (but these are now established as regular occurrences, informally part of the schedule). IMHO Londoners are getting very poor political representation on this issue. Incredible that if you want to complain about aircraft noise, you're supposed to contact the airport concerned! Preposterous and designed solely in favour of aviation expansion.
