LIVINGSTONE VISITS CROYDON AS MAYORAL RACE HOTS UP In a visit to Croydon as part of his bid to be re-elected as London Mayor, Ken Livingstone said that improving the tram service is one of his priorities. A new fleet of trams would be purchased when TfL take over running the system and the Crystal Palace extension would be constructed.
Mr Livingstone said: “The most dramatic thing for Croydon is bringing the tram into public ownership. We will run it to the max with a much more frequent service and a better service to New Addington."
