Keeping Croydon moving

We are working hard with developers and other partners to keep disruption to a minimum.

Construction and logistics for how we will keep Croydon moving

With so many major developments taking place over the next 5 years within the growth zone, we are working hard with developers and other partners to keep disruption to a minimum.

Together we are keeping Croydon moving for the people who live in the town centre, come in to work or run a business, or want to visit.

Construction traffic management

Every day hundreds of additional HGV trips are being made on Croydon’s road. Controlling the construction traffic helps keep people safe, eases congestion and can help control air quality in the town centre. Ways we can manage construction traffic include:

  • limiting construction traffic during rush hours
  • setting specific routes for construction traffic around the town centre
  • having holding areas in place outside the busiest areas
  • monitoring construction traffic and enforcing our management measures using CCTV
  • using air quality sensors to monitor air pollution

Helping residents get around

We’re working with major employers in the town centre to advise workers about getting into and out of the town centre.

We’ll let you know about any proposed changes to public transport, road layouts, cycle routes, and so on through or usual channels. And you can keep u to date with the latest travel information through our Twitter account @CroTravelAlerts

Thoughtful hoarding design, new lighting and signage are also planned to help people move around the town centre easily and safely.

Collaborative street works

We're working with utility and transport providers to avoid doing street works in isolation, reducing disruption to Croydon road users by working in the same road space at the same time.
