This has an adverse effect on the traffic flow,

looks like POV and not validatable fact.

Route in progress

I am making the route more flexible in line with the North Circular and other major route descriptions. This means taking away the table. I am also changing the direction of the route to keep it in line with the direction of the North Circular. This is a work in progress, and the current state is not intended to reflect the finished product. SilkTork 23:17, 23 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It would be nice if you finished it with the section through to Kew again. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.30.232.1 (talk) 13:34, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 18 August 2015

– The Dublin SCR appears to be more significant due to its association with the Jewish community and other historical events. A straight search for book and news coverage gives prominence to the Dublin version. The London SCR is notable, but as a bodge job of urban streets, it does not have the same historical significance. While viewing figures show this article to have about 8 times as many views as the Dublin SCR, I can't help thinking some of those are people coming here by mistake. As a second choice, South Circular Road (disambiguation) could become the main page if there is no obvious primary topic. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 11:43, 18 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Alternate use the alternate suggestion, move the London topic, and move the disambiguation page South Circular Road (disambiguation) to "South Circular Road" -- 67.70.32.190 (talk) 05:26, 19 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose or maybe support second choice as per the anon above. The Dublin road is certainly not more significant than the London one; whether the London one is more significant is debatable. The Dublin road may have more historical significance as a road, but the London one is almost certainly far better known. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:03, 19 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support IP's Alternate such an anonymous title does not seem to deserve ANY 'primary', consistency suggests the 'London' move, who knows how many other places may end up having a 'S. Circular Rd.'. Pincrete (talk) 16:34, 20 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • support but make a disambiguation page. hardly anyone in london knows of the s. circular anyways, as it's more of a route, not a proper road like the north ciruclar. ~~ipuser 90.192.101.114 (talk) 23:40, 20 August 2015 (UTC)--edit, I changed from oppose to support as I meant support, just made a mistake. Continuning on that, no, I don't think the Irish one is any more notable than the London S. Circular, but it's a road, I doubt very much people in Hertsforshire are familiar with the South Circular. It should be "South Circular Road, London" if for nothing else than it's not a big enough topic to be notable north of the river Thames (or heck, south of the North Downs) ~~ipuser 90.192.101.114 (talk) 06:50, 21 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose, the London road is much better known, and notable for its curious construction from existing streets. Millions of Londoners and others are only too well aware of the South Circular and its traffic jams. Chiswick Chap (talk) 04:35, 21 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
