2 February (Part 1) - Coincidence?

Gayton Road stairs It must be nearly two weeks since I last walked to nearby Abbey Wood station due to the previously mentioned argument with a ladder. New bruises appeared overnight! However yesterday I drove over the flyover on a 6·8 mile journey that took two hours and 17 minutes thanks to Greenwich Council’s obsession with frustrating motorists and noticed that the barriers that had blocked the Gayton Road Stairs for the past three years had gone. Half of which were totally unnecessary. The stairs refurbishment was completed in August 2020.

I hitched a lift this morning to take a closer look.

A month ago I suspected that the Council’s neglect was a natural consequence of the better qualified staff looking for employers that were not on their financial uppers, a guess which proved to be correct.

I don’t know when the stairs were brought back into use but the timing suggest that Bonkers pricked someone’s conscience. Unfortunately this area of Bexley is not a home for any elected Councillor. They won’t be using Abbey Wood station, Belevdere maybe, Possibly even far away Albany Park but not Abbey Wood.
