I know I'm moaning to the converted (know the area), but the number of cars that come down Upland road expecting to turn into Piermont Road and get thro to the common is phenomenal. Once they realise they cannot get through they need to reverse back out catching wing mirros on the way, back into one of the cars parked on Upland road and then drive away - is there anyway we can get the council to put a sign up letting people know this is not a thro road?

Yeah, Southwark Council REALLY listen.

Ha.

It just so happens there is a traffic segment in the next Nunhead and Peckham Rye Community Council next Wed 21 July. Check the website for the venue (Whorlton Road). I do not know if the street mentioned is in that area. If it is not,then go to the Comm COuncil that DOES cover it. It's interesting to read but we can't do anything.

Another problem may be that the cars that drive down this road may be being TOLD to by the SatNavs. I bet that's what's happening.

Solved.....Piermont Road Flyover, apparently the council have been looking into it. They have produced a artists impression of how it might look. That would sort it. Also would give the benefit of somewhere dry for piss heads to hang out.

I can't wait for the flyover - They're already calling it 'South London's Answer to the Westway'


Inevitable thread about ED house prices 'will probably break the internet', a source at the South London Reporter remarked

The South-Eastway - I like it. It's catchy in a sort of non catchy way....I think that the top end of PR Park, with it's useless fields can be redeveloped as a new retail park. Finally we'll get McDonalds, Pizza Hut,KFC Matalan and others. ED has been crying out for these for a long time. Obviously Piermont Road will need to be protected so the fly over can be extended up Upland road with Upland road being extended over LL to join with the south circular. This will essentially like Dulwich Park and Peckham Park. The Park Link Flyover as it might be know , East Dulwich answer to cross rail.


I really feel that we are onto something here

With any luck they'll be mixing concrete by the weekend!


You overlooked something though - Parking is an issue that rears its ugly head time and again in ED - I feel to better serve the new retail park and appease residents so choked by the current on-street arrangements, a new multi-storey near the beginning of the flyover on the under-utilised bottom half of the Rye would be a welcome addition.

Genius. Who needs planners, Architects , road planners. THIS IS PROGRESS, Power to the people.


Of course it will be environmentally friendly, like Harris Boys Academy we too can randomly slap wind turbines on the roof ( see attched).After all we are in a particularly windy part of London, being low down and nowhere near the coast.


This is a call to pick up your spades.....


Before anyone else says it (mods), might be going a bit off-topic now......

    • That rubbish is a health and safety issue. It could easily fall on someone walking underneath it.
    • A town square would be nice. Perhaps we could pedestrianise North cross Road and create a square at the junction of Lordship Lane. Can't imagine there would be any objections / controversy.  This is probably true, but the issue is not so much the level of the rent, but the degree to which it is sustainable in the context of the local market. The Landlords locally do seem to have squeezed rents to the point where places can no longer survive in many cases. Think the furore was largely manufactured tbf.
    • https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-14774205/Urgent-warning-opioid-deaths-Met-Police-pills-heroin-nightclubs.html?ito=email_share_article-top   I'm sharing this article to help to spread the word about these new deadly synthetic opioids called Nitazenes which are finding their way onto the drug scene.  Two more young lives lost last weekend in young people at a South London club.    Most people I talk to have never heard of Nitazenes which are being used as contaminants in a number of other drugs including sleeping pills like valium and Xanax, oxycodone but have also been found in vapes and sedative antihistamines and cocaine.  So people buying sleeping tablets and other substances have no idea of the risk they are taking.  This is a relatively new trend and the number of deaths is on the increase.  Do discuss it with your teenagers and young adult children and anyone you know tempted to purchase sleeping tablets online.  It really is a much more dangerous and potentially lethal time to buy tablets online or on the street and hopefully knowledge of Nitazenes can help people protect themselves.  This stuff is in London and no doubt, is already in Dulwich so do spread the word.     
    • The link is showing the real link to the East Dulwich Forum that Joe on here set up.  https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1DanoiLd48/?mibextid=wwXIfr East Dulwich Mums is my group and is not a spin off from this group. I have no connection to the other EDF Facebook group and nor do I promote any cleaning services. My group is very well run thank you and your information is incorrect.  No, that is the new Facebook group that the admin on here has set up.  Joe does need to turn the settings on that group to pre approval for all posts as there is a lot of posts on there that isn’t relevant.
