I drove through the junction of Canonbie, Tyson and Honor Oak Roads just now - no sign of a problem. I walked down to the railway underpass by the Forest Hill mural though, and water is gushing out of the leak that has been causing traffic mayhem for the last week or so.

The earlier leak under the railway bridge was apparently repaired today but the Thames Water technician tells me the folk who came to fill the hole hit the repair with their digger, resulting in an unplanned water feature. The guy says he has no clue when it will be fixed as the flow and water level has to subside before they can assess the situation, as “no pump would be powerful to handle that sort of flow”!
