CARLTON (HERNE HILL) PARADE BAYS INSTALLED

This morning the new 20 minute bays were marked out with dotted white lines and the yellow lines removed from within the bays.
Locations are as follows:
HERNE HILL -- two bays outside the delicatessen and two/three just beyond Elfindale Road
FRANKFURT ROAD -- one bay at top
ELFINDALE ROAD -- two bays at the top

The 20 minute signs have still to be erected.

Please let your friends and colleagues know so that
these shops can boost and restore trade and really thrive in the future.

SHORT-TERM PARKING FOR (CARLTON) HERNE HILL PARADE

Following a campaign started as a "soap-box" item in the Herne Hill Forum over two years ago, and strongly backed by traders and local Councillors, the introduction of the bays is scheduled for August.
There'll be 5 x 20 minute bays on Herne Hill itself, 3 or 4 in Elfindale Road (where the yellow lines are so there will be no loss of parking for residents) and one bay in Frankfurt Road. This is great news for this vital parade of shops.
Watch this space for the starting date.

HERNE HILL VIBRATIONS
Residents will be pleased to learn that the resurfacing work will now take place in 2006 rather than the original and distant 2007.
It is essential that this item is closely monitored.

ROUTE 42 EXTENSION

A successful test took place in early June for extension of this route from Sunray Avenue to North Dulwich Station, East Dulwich Grove and Grove Vale to a terminus at Sainsburys in Dog Kennel Hill.
Negotiations re standing arrangements for the buses are now taking place. If these fail the Herne Hill option will be revisited.

Herne Hill Forum campaigned heavily for this route to be saved and extended.

37 RE-ROUTING
The proposed re-routing would see the route continue along East Dulwich Grove to Lordship Lane and rejoin the existing route along East Dulwich Road at Goose Green roundabout.
Melbourne Grove, East Dulwich Station and Grove Vale would no longer be served

HERNE HILL STADIUM (VELODROME)
TO RE-OPEN ON 5 AUGUST

The future of the Cycling Stadium in Burbage Road has been assured for the next three years following an agreement between the owners of the land, Dulwich Estates, and British Cycling.
The Velodrome will re-open on Friday 5th August and, although the Stadium will not host the Olympics as was at one time hoped, it will play a role in developing cycling in the capital: for example, Talent Team Squads
will get essential use of the track for training and events and a thriving local Club should now be within reach.
There is also a plan to add a leisure and sports complex at a future date, although there has been some opposition to this locally.
