Following a fatal shooting in Catford in the early hours of this morning Rushey Green is closed to all traffic at the junction with Catford Road resulting in severe delays on the South Circiular and diversion routes.

According to the TfL website the following bus routes are diverted as follows:

185 From Forest Hill Fire Station to Lewisham Fire Station and v.v following the same route as the 122. It is not serving the normal stops from Kilmorie Road to Lewisham Park in each direction.
