A New Tram Loop At East Croydon
I don’t go to Croydon very often, but I always have problems with getting between the two stations; East Croydon and West Croydon. The reason is that I live near Dalston Junction and therefore end up at West Croydon, but I have onward travel from East Croydon. I also sometimes want to travel to IKEA via West Croydon.
The Tramlink is being updated with a new turnback loop at East Croydon station, which is described here. I took these pictures in the area, where it will go.
It doesn’t seem to me that any of the options suit me better than any other, but I hope the cars I saw rushing about in the area between the offices calm down, when they share the roads with the trams.
One thing the new loop won’t do, is help me get to IKEA from West Croydon station. Either I walk through to the Church Street stop or go to East Croydon and get on a tram to Wimbledon.
