The Council has agreed to repair the road surface in the town centre, commencing on the 25th July and lasting around 4 weeks.

This will mean that at different times Chipstead Valley Road and parts of Brighton Road will be closed to traffic, sometimes totally and sometimes limited to one direction.

ECRA have asked that southbound buses should have access to the town centre at all times. Northbound buses may be diverted via the Bypass using the 404 bus stop at the northern end of the bus lane.

This will affect buses in Coulsdon:

Southbound: all southbound buses should be able to serve the following stops in the town centre Coulsdon Town station and the Library this includes routes 166 and 434 which will be diverted via Brighton Road and Lion Green Road.

Northbound: All stops will be closed. The following will apply Routes 60, 405 and N68 will be diverted via the Bypass after Coulsdon South station and will serve the 404 stop at the end of the bypass.

Route 166 and 434 will be diverted after Portnalls Road stop along Lion Green Road, then along the bypass. They will serve the Lion Green stop and the 404 stop at the northern end of the bypass.

Route 463 will be diverted via the Bypass after Coulsdon South station and will serve the 404 stop on the bypass then turn into the town centre and serve the stop in the Avenue.
