Croydon is one of London's most connected boroughs — trams, trains, buses, and the Overground all pass through. Here's your transport snapshot:

Tram:TfL carried out works at Mitcham junction earlier this year — services now running normally.

Rail:East Croydon remains one of the busiest stations outside central London. Weekend engineering works have been ongoing — check National Rail before travelling on weekends.

Bus:The 466 route cuts are the latest in a series of TfL service reductions affecting outer London. Worth keeping an eye on if you use local buses regularly.

Roads:Croydon Council's 2026/27 resurfacing programme is underway — full list available via My London.
