Traffic jam!

[clareybrad]

Does anyone know why traffic from lordship lane heading up to horniman then up Sydenham hill is SO bad tonight????

[Siduhe]

They were doing roadworks there last night which was causing the same problem. May be continuing?

One lane, roadworks

[Alexthecamel]

Backed up from Peckham Rye. It took 40 mins to get up Barry Lane to Dulwich Park entrance on Court Lane.

It's snarled up all the way up Kirkdale, along Sydenham Hill towards Crystal Palace and beyond.

Brenchley Gardens junc with Forest Hill road and up to Honor Oak Road and Honor Oak Park all snarled up with traffic that was rat running on adjoining roads. Roads a lot clearer now, but still a steady stream of traffic

I heard earlier that it is emergency roadworks in anaerly causing the problems with congestion coming back this far

Hello, anyone got an update on this one? Want to avoid a repeat performance of yesterday? had to abandon the car and walk home! Not seeing it on tfl travel twitter. Anyone got any links? I think it was a road closure on Crystal Palace Park Road (next to Crystal Palace Park) because of gas works. Just hoping they're finished now?.

All buses from Croydon terminating at Penge due to closure from THicket Road to Maple Road. being diverted via Anerley Hill. We waited an hour for a bus last night coming home from Sussex. Buses were running upto an hour late

gas leak on Crystal Palace park Road near Penge West station bridge. Road will be closed until Monday they say.

Was also backed up from Dulwich Village to Horniman via Lordship Lane Estate- P4 took an hour! Luckily I was on the bus rather than waiting for it......waiting for the p4 is a drag at the best of times

Sounds like a jam on all roads

[SebsC]

Anyone know what it's like now?

[Applespider]

Deliberately didn't go that way after being delayed the last couple of nights. Got off buses two stops early and walked each time.

P4s last night had an hour gap in service followed by 30-40 minutes stuck in traffic. Ouch

This was due to the closure of Crystal Park Road from Wednesday night till last night. Buses and cars were taking diversions to Sydenham and Penge via Forest Hill hence the congestion in Lordship Lane. Crystal Palace Park Rd is now re-opened so things should be back to normal.

Junctions of Brenchley Gardens with Forest Hill Road and Canonbie road - four way traffic lights in place, traffic chaos in all directions with traffic backing up and Woodvale being held up as turning onto Forest Hill Road, suggest either travel later, earlier or not by car, van or bus.
