Well done for persevering Erekose, but I'm afraid Lewisham Highways are only concerned with keeping the traffic flowing. At all costs.

Even if they were somehow forced to install a pelican crossing outside the station at PV or at Honor Oak Pk station, they now set the wait times to over 1 minute, presumably as a deterrent. (ie the Co-op crossing or the new Lloyds bank crossing Sydenham).

But even with the excessive wait, for those with shopping, children, prams, or those not so quick, then it is better than nothing. And drivers are conditioned to stop at lights, as opposed to zebra crossings which they often ignore, especially at night.
