Transport for London has issued a late-notice notification that “maintenance and repair work” is to be undertaken on Church Street in Croydon town centre all through next week, starting on Monday July 15.
More works: Church Street will have repairs conducted on the tram network in the early hours of July 15 to 21
The works – on the tracks between Middle Street to Tamworth Road – will be conducted through the night, between 1am and 4.30am, and therefore should not impact the tram services. The works will take place until Sunday July 21.
While the works are being undertaken, “the road will be closed and a traffic diversion plan will be in place”, according to TfL.
The diversion will run west of Church Street along the A236 then on to Coombe Street, High Street and Charles Street.
“This is one of the final stages of work that was undertaken in February 2024,” TfL says, “and will include minor repairs to the concrete upstands situated either side of the tram track.”
TfL warns of the use of heavy machinery and “construction noise” that will be unavoidable during the works.
