Isn't that the same root, just from two different sides?

Correct, but just using it as an example of the 3 trees on the stretch of pavement.

Maybe they are going to resurface the whole section of pavement... Who knows...
They seem to be patching up lots of pavement though, which is good.

That is the question.
One of the pics above shows marking on a far less damaged piece of pavement in the next street which is being completely torn up and replaced. But no such markings on the Church Rise one.
Doesn't mean nothing is being done of course, but would be good if the council could at least confirm they have checked it, and intend or don't intend on making any repairs.
Hence I have asked them again to say what's happening.
Seen plenty of people of all ages trip and sometimes fall on the roots, impassable by a wheelchair, not great for mums and prams, and utterly useless for elderly with push along aids or a trolley.
It is indeed good that there are smaller ongoing repairs though.

no doubt this will give Lewisham the excuse to hack the tree down.

Hopefully not the case. They have done similar repairs elsewhere with minimal intrusion.
That said, they have to decide its even worth dealing with first.
