The council has leafletted residents about the Windrush Sq anti-terror bollards:

Windrush Square/Effra Road

Has there been any update on re-opening of the bus stop?
And given all the unexpected work on utilities mean that they have managed to find a way to replace all of the blown light bulbs in the fancy lighting installed at the time of the landscaping of the square?
 
Response from TfL below. Seems it’s to do with the widening of the pavement which has restricted how many buses can stop and the installation of the anti terrorism barriers on Windrush Sq over running.

They really need to stop outside the station, even Windrush Sq is a bit of an ask for some to walk & crossing Coldharbour Lane is pretty horrible when really busy.

Quite rioght. They now have got a mindset that having an interchange will encourage more Covid passengers.
 
Just walked across Brixton Hill by the Nisa / Post Office and saw half a dozen people with protest signs bearing the name "Rebels on the Roundabouts". They were not protesting so much as gathering together, presumably to protest.

Never heard of them before but a quick Google seems to indicate they are not fans of vaccination or the like
 
Jay Rayner was on the twitter about this the other day....


Seems like a big storm in a teacup. 3 people stand at the wrong place for the bus, the bus validly goes past them as it isnt a hail and ride taxi service, nothing else untoward appears to happen, local millionaire gets on his pedestal to publicly hassle TFL probably to boost his massive ego. Well done mate, let's hope TFL respond to you so you can stop holding your breath 🙄
