Camberwell New Road isn't that nice, but it does have a bus lane so you move along it pretty fast.
Most of the alternatives I've tried in that area suffer from impatient rat-run traffic which feels very unsafe by comparison. Would love to know if there is a better way from Camberwell to Oval though.
There's a number of junction changes being planned to protect the route from Myatts Field to Kennington Park which may help calm down the back streets a bit.
