Re: Thames water and the vomiting bug (cholera) in Sydenham

Re: Crystal Palace Park introduces car park charges
Half an hour grace drop off and pickup time period.
CP Park was becoming more and more an outlier in not charging for parking - even Sydenham's own Girton Road Car Park finally succumbed to charges recently (last car park in Lewisham without charges I understand).
I might not like it but it ...

Re: Lewisham's mayoral by-election
@Stuart - I'd like to think your analysis of pro ULEZ/LTN candidates is correct and will follow through to broader elections. However with this being a byelection and the low turnout I think we have to wait and see. But a great motivator.

Thanks Stuart - interesting. I've put a link to the CPS news article about this - the Yahoo link you gave didn't give me anything.

Re: Business/industrial unit on Newlands Park - what is it?
Just recently some of the MOPAC team (Mayor's Office for Policing And Crime*) have also moved to Newlands Park from their original offices at the old City Hall near Tower Bridge. So not just the police there these days.

That's amazing. Good for non commuters too. Interesting what the ride will be like at the Sydenham points though - and how will they enforce red signals.

Re: Unsurprising and unacceptable: All Lewisham schools fail to meet interim WHO air pollution guidelines
It's not good, is it? I'd be even more concerned if I was younger with school age children. But this is a problem for us all that affects us all - not just children. Unfortunately it's not in any one individual's power to solve - though individuals can change behaviours and set examples. They can ...

Re: Consultation on Proposal to Close Silverdale/Bishopsthorpe Road to traffic
Well at least this moves the closures to be based on more normal and standard regulations rather than the temporary emergency Covid related ones under which they were introduced - or at least that's what I understand. As always some will think these closures and restrictions to traffic are a good ...

It really is disappointing how the MPS just doesn't want to acknowledge past (and not so past shortcomings). It's a different world now to 10, 20 years ago. "Policing by consent" summarised Peel's principles when establishing the original force as an ethical one. I just hope they change their ...
