Traffic restrictions further east might increase traffic on ECCO roads. Have your say 2-3pm TODAY Saturday, 23 November at St Mildred’s Church, Bingham Road @yourcroydon @TfL

Croydon Council has organised drop-in sessions to get your views on proposals to rearrange traffic movements in East Croydon, and parts of Addiscombe and Shirley.   These proposals may lead to significant changes in traffic movements in your road.  

It is likely that evening traffic restrictions in streets further east will increase the flow of traffic along Lower Addiscombe Road to the Leslie Arms junction.  Some southbound vehicles would continue their journey via Cherry Orchard Road.  However, it is possible that sat nav will identify a cut-through involving turning left along Leslie Park Road (proposed to be made one-way with an easterly flow).  These vehicles would then be directed south via Lebanon or Tunstall Road.

ECCO representatives in the process have focused on putting forward ideas to make our local roads safer and healthier for all our residents,  young and old,  driver,  cyclist and pedestrian.  They do not wish this project to be merely an exercise in re-siphoning non-residential traffic movements from one road to another.

Other proposed changes within the ECCO area directly affect the following roads

  • Leslie Park Road
  • Lower Addiscombe Road
  • Oval Road
  • Lebanon Road

Further drop-in sessions at St Mildred’s Church, Bingham Road

  • Thursday 28 Nov session to start from 5pm until 8:30pm in the Small Hall
  • Saturday 30 Nov session to start from 2pm until 5pm in the Pavilion
