This has happened again this evening and there are no trains running from East Croydon in the direction of Oxted. What's occurring??

What's happening here? Maybe something changed part way through 2023 on urban/residential 30mph roads! I wonder if it could be that from Sep 17th 2023 95% of roads with a 30mph limit were changed to 20mph. #20splenty making your place an even better, safer, quieter, fairer place to be!

Very poor station announcements from @SouthernRailUK at #oxted station as the 6:23 is effectively cancelled (30 min delay). Passengers were left on the platform who could have caught the 6:19 (departed 6:22) but the announcement of the long delay was only made after it departed.

Three days into a heatwave and South East Water is already sending out panic messages. "Water supplies are struggling in your area" and "use for essential purposes only - drinking, washing and cooking." 🚰

In 2021 we were asked to present at the Road Safety GB Festival of Road Safety on the call for a national urban/village 20mph default speed limit. It's still valid and since then the data is even clearer that 20mph reduces casualties by 20-30%. Its time for 20mph vimeo.com/642715509?fl=pl&fe… vimeo.com/642715509?fl=pl&fe…

Misleading advert of the day. Trainline will not process your delay/repay claim in the app and refund you. They tell you to submit paper copies to the service provider. @thetrainline

One of the many reasons you should ride your bike well clear of cars' door zone. This can be mid lane or out of a poorly designed bike lane.

And how is that relevant? Doorings occur in London too.
