A spokesperson for Thames Water said the team had been “working overnight to fix the pipe” and would continue working throughout the day (February 12).

“Our engineers have been working to restore your water supply while we carry out the repairs,” the spokesperson said.

Thames Water is also continuing to work on repairing a leak at their pumping station in Crystal Palace.

The postcodes affected by these issues include: SE19, SE20, SE23, SE26, and SE27.

Thames Water said repairs are underway, with some homes experiencing lower water pressure during peak times.

The issue mainly affects the SW16 area, and Thames Water has redirected water through other pipes to maintain supply.

Postcodes in south east London, SE19 (Upper Norwood and Crystal Palace), AND SE27 (parts of Gipsy Hill and Tulse Hill), are also being affected.

Updates are expected later today (February 11), and residents are thanked for their patience

On Saturday (February 1), Transport for London (TfL) will be making significant changes to bus services in south London, including the withdrawal of route 118.

Instead, a revised route 45 will take over much of its route, running between Camberwell Green and Morden.

As part of these changes, route 45 will be extended from Brixton Hill to Morden, following the same path that route 118 previously covered.

However, it will no longer run between Elephant & Castle and Camberwell Green, or between Brixton Hill and Clapham Park.

Operation of the 521 bus route began on the 18th of July 1992.

The 521 bus was once a very busy route during rush-hour which primarily serviced workers at Holborn and St. Pauls.

The frequent arrivals of the 521 not only allowed it to accommodate for its small single decker space, but also to keep up with high demand during rush-hour.

However, due to the change in the amount of work-related journeys made in the city of London involving the 521 bus, an overall of 3 million journeys were lost from the years 2011/2012 to the years 2021/2022.

The trust, which acts as the national advice and advocacy body for UK theatres, has named 44 theatres across the country that are threatened by closure due to structural issues, safety concerns, or redevelopment plans.

Many of these theatres, the trust says, are of significant historical and cultural importance and could remain valuable community spaces if given the right support.

In the south area of London, the two theatres at risk are Streatham Hill Theatre and Borough Hall in Greenwich.

The ambitious expansion plans come a month after Wingstop’s UK arm was taken over by a US private equity firm, for more than £400 million.

Wingstop UK said that at least 10 new locations will open in the first half of the year.

These will include dine-in restaurants in Swansea, Newcastle, Lakeside shopping centre in Essex, Streatham in south London and Cardigan Fields in Leeds.

The brand will also open a further delivery kitchen in Brighton.

A consultation has been launched to axe late night buses at the weekend for route 319 between Sloane Square and Streatham Hill.

These services have been suspended since the pandemic, but TfL plans to now make this change permanent.

Transport bosses say they have made the decision because there was “limited” use of the route before the pandemic, so its reintroduction cannot be justified.
