Planned Roadworks – A22 Godstone Road A22 shield

We have been advised of a significant road closure in Purley, on the Godstone Road (A22), from the Tesco car park entrance to Dale Road.

It will be a complete road closure, both lanes, for a 275m stretch of the road to enable essential water repairs.

Work is due to begin on 18 May and will last for 6-8 weeks. More information on road maintenance and closures are on the Croydon Council website
