Tram services through New Addington will face major disruptions in December.

There will be no service to New Addington from December 4, as major improvement work takes place to the line.

Trams will also be suspended from Sandilands from 10pm on Wednesday, December 4, until Sunday, December 8.

From Monday, December 9 until Thursday, December 12, trams will not run between New Addington and Addington Village.

A replacement bus service will run but Coombe Lane tram stop will not be served due to works on the road lasting from December, 4 to December, 9.

There will be signed diversion routes and mobile variable message signs displaying real time and diversion information.

Service will return to normal on December 13.

Vicky Kafetzi, Stakeholder Communications Manager at TfL, said: "I hope you will appreciate that a certain level of disruption is inevitable, and I apologise in advance for any inconvenience caused.

"TfL is firmly committed to minimising disruption and we are working closely with the London Borough of Croydon and local stakeholders to reduce the impacts of this work as far as possible."
