Van Diemen's Lane is a residential street with a steep gradient and a rather shoddy, potholed road surface that is worn smooth, making it extremely slippery, especially when covered in black ice.

It is a no-through road for a designated walking bus route. The term "walking bus route" typically refers to a route where children walk to school with adult volunteers or parents acting as "buses".
Due to the narrow pavement (singular, as there is only one on one side of the hill), children, parents, and others can be seen walking on the road down the hill daily. There are steps from Van Diemen’s Lane down onto Charlcombe Lane, and cyclists can navigate this while carrying their bike.
