CROYDON TRAMLINK IMPACT STUDY

The Croydon Tramlink is a 28.2Km light rail system in the London Borough of Croydon. It became fully operational on May 30, 2000 and it re-introduced street running light rail to London after an absence of almost 50 years. The three lines provide a fast, frequent and reliable connection to and through Croydon on an east-west axis, using modern light rail vehicles. The overall objective of the Impact Study was to understand the effect that the new system has on travel patterns and transport systems in the area. Such evidence, and potential improvements in model specification, will be invaluable in the development and appraisal of further public transport systems in London. The impact was assessed through carrying out pre- and post- opening studies.
