That's great news, but two new traffic islands are about to be constructed at the junction of Perry Vale and Westbourne Drive outside the Co-op. According to a TfL traffic order there will be no exit from Perry Vale and no left turn into either Stanstead Road or Westbourne Drive from 6 Sept - 30 November
Coming out of Forest Hill Station today, onto Perry Vale, I saw a succession of cars passing the 'No Entry' and 'Road Closed' signs and carrying on down Perry Vale on the wrong side of the road. Bizarre. You always get one who thinks the rules don't apply to them, but everyone? I'm assuming the work hasn't started yet so they can still squeeze through to the South Circular. There was a police car hot on their tails - not sure how he would catch up with and book ten or more drivers (assuming it was them he was chasing).
