London Tramlink services to Elmers End and Beckenham Junction will be suspended between Saturday 24th May and Sunday 1st June to allow for the replacement of the road bridge at Spring Lane, Woodside. During this period trams from Therapia Lane and West Croydon will terminate at Addiscombe with a replacement bus service being provided between Beckenham Junction and East Croydon calling as close as possible to most trams stops. Trams on Line 1 between Wimbledon and New Addington will be unaffected and will be able to operate a normal service.<\/p>\n

Spring Lane bridge passes over the Tramlink line close to Woodside tramstop and carries the former \u2013 and now rather dilapidated \u2013 Woodside Station building. The work will now affect this building and at least for now it will remain in situ even after the works have been completed.<\/p>\n
