INFRASTRUCTURE DELIVERY PLAN: INTRODUCTION
What is the Infrastructure Delivery Plan?
The Infrastructure Delivery Plan (IDP) is produced on an annual basis to support
the Local Plan. The IDP identifies the borough’s infrastructure requirements and
provides an update on the delivery of a range of physical, social and green
infrastructure projects across six programmes:
1. Enterprising City Programme
2. Learning City Programme
3. Creative City Programme
4. Connected City Programme
5. Sustainable City Programme
6. Caring City Programme
The IDP is also used by the Council’s Infrastructure Finance Group in prioritising
and determining bids for Section 106 monies and Community Infrastructure Levy
(CIL) income.
Paragraph 162 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) requires local
planning authorities to work with other authorities and providers to assess the
quality and capacity of infrastructure for transport, water supply, wastewater and
its treatment, energy, telecommunications, utilities, waste, health, social care,
education, flood risk and coastal change management, and its ability to meet
forecast demands. They should also take account of the need for strategic
infrastructure including nationally significant infrastructure within their areas.
The IDP supports the Croydon Local Plan: Strategic Policies and the Croydon
Local Plan: Detailed Policies and Proposals. For the Local Plan to be found sound
at Examination it must demonstrate that it is:
Positively Prepared: The Local Plan should be based on a strategy which
seeks to meet objectively assessed development and infrastructure
requirements.
Justified: The Local Plan should be the most appropriate strategy based on
proportionate evidence.
Effective: The Local Plan should be deliverable over its period and be
based on effective joint working.
Consistent with national policy: The Local Plan should enable the delivery
of sustainable development in accordance with the policies of the NPPF.
The IDP sets out how the borough’s infrastructure requirements will be delivered
over the lifetime of the Local Plan. It also demonstrates how this infrastructure will
support the development and growth set out in the Local Plan for the next 20
years.
How has the Infrastructure Delivery Plan been produced?
The IDP has been produced in consultation with internal stakeholders including
officers in Economic Development, Highways, Transport, Green Spaces,
Education, Housing, Spatial Planning and Housing Development and
Regeneration, Pollution, Libraries and Bereavement Services. Consultation has
also taken place with external stakeholders including utility providers, Croydon
College, Transport for London, NHS, London Ambulance Service, Metropolitan
Police and London Fire Brigade.
What does the Infrastructure Delivery Plan contain?
For each infrastructure type, the IDP sets out the borough’s requirements, where
and when it is required, why it is needed and an update on the delivery of the
infrastructure to date. It also sets out what progress will be made over the next
year and identifies whether there are any risks and mitigation measures to assist
with delivery. Each infrastructure type is accompanied by a Infrastructure Delivery
Schedule table which provides further detail on who will be delivering the required
infrastructure, funding sources, total costs and identifies whether there are

INFRASTRUCTURE DELIVERY PLAN: INTRODUCTION
What is the Croydon Opportunity Area Development Infrastructure Funding Study?
The Development Infrastructure Funding Study (DIFS) assesses infrastructure
needs and provides a strategy for infrastructure funding in order to inform future
planning and funding decisions, assist delivery and underpin the Opportunity Area
Planning Framework (OAPF). It analyses infrastructure needs against the growth
and development projects in line with the Local Plan up to 2031 and reviews the
infrastructure requirements and costs associated with growth in the OAPF,
including priorities and phasing of the necessary infrastructure.
The DIFS provides an estimation of infrastructure costs and funding to deliver
transport, utilities and social infrastructure and sets out the funding committed.
Additional funding sources are assessed which include public sector funding
programmes and revenues and the extent to which they contribute to funding
requirements is reviewed. The DIFS also gives recommendations on how to take
the strategy forward and includes suggestions relating to the establishment of
funding and loan mechanisms.
What is the relationship between the Infrastructure Delivery Plan and the Development Infrastructure Funding Study?
The purpose of both documents is to identify infrastructure requirements.
However, the DIFS focusses on the COA whilst the IDP takes a borough-wide
approach. Information from the DIFS has been used in the production of the IDP
and both documents will continue to be updated in tandem on an annual basis.

ENTERPRISING CITY PROGRAMME: DIGITAL INFRASTRUCTURE NETWORK
What?
Wi-Fi/Broadband enhancement
Where?
Borough-wide
When?
On-going
Why?
A modern, reliable, high quality digital infrastructure is required to support local businesses and residents and improve Croydon’s competitive offer.
Where are we now?
Croydon was one of the six London boroughs chosen to pilot the government’s
Connection Voucher Scheme aimed at improving broadband connectivity for SME
businesses. The scheme closed to new applications in September 2015 by which
time the 254 Croydon based SMEs had been awarded funding which provides up
to £3,000 per business to either upgrade their existing capability or have superfast
broadband installed into their premises for the first time.
A 2014 report into the broadband, digital and Wi-Fi infrastructure in the Croydon
Opportunity area was undertaken by Mott MacDonald with a number of the
recommendations included in the Growth Plan approved by Cabinet in autumn
2014. Meetings between the Council and major Infrastructure Service Providers
(ISPs) such as BT & Virgin have taken place to identify their investment proposals
for Croydon following the Mott MacDonald report.
Discussions have taken place with Croydon Council and a number of ISPs who
are keen to partner with Croydon Council to install and / or upgrade the fixed and
mobile communications network in the borough.
As part of these investment programmes meetings have been held with both
major ISPs, Virgin and BT, and as part of BT’s ‘Openreach’ Investment
programme another 9,400 homes and businesses will be connected to fast
reliable broadband via fibre optic cabling by 2018. This will take mean that
140,000 homes and businesses in Croydon will have fibre to the premises (fttp)
connectivity.
In terms of Wi-Fi and associated networks, a ‘Wi-Max’ rooftop concession trial
between One Croydon and Davis House took place in February 2015 to test the
upload and download speeds. The results were impressive and offer the potential
of a high quality alternative to fibre optic broadband installation whilst Croydon
Town Centre is redeveloped. Funding constraints have however restricted the
implementation of a number of developments planned for 2016.
What are the next steps for 2016?
In order to make strategic sense of these various investments and initiatives by
broadband, Wi-Fi and digital infrastructure providers the Council is developing a
policy position statement for adoption in 2016 that will provide the strategic
context to progress a number of these innovations and new services designed to
benefit residents, businesses and visitors to the borough. For example, a survey
was undertaken in late November / early December of the current Wi-Fi
connectivity and capability at Higher Drive Recreation Ground with a view for a
wider survey across the borough in spring 2016.
To ensure all residents and businesses fully benefit from digital technology
Croydon became the first London borough to become a member of the national
digital skills charity ‘Go On’ UK with a number of digital zones being set up across
the borough specifically aimed at offering training and support to the 20% of the
population who lack digital skills. As well as the financial benefits that can accrue
from digital transactions (estimated at up to £1000 per year by going ‘online’) the
Go On campaign will also support a more inclusive society, a key corporate
priority for Croydon.

ENTERPRISING CITY PROGRAMME: ENTERPRISE CENTRES FOR CREATIVE AND CULTURAL INDUSTRIES
What?
Creative and cultural industries centres, including the Croydon Tech Hub
Where?
Croydon Opportunity Area, Crystal Palace, South Norwood (Stanley Halls) and Purley
When?
Croydon Tech Hub: Spring 2016 Remaining locations: 2020
Why?
The Croydon Local Plan: Strategic Policies states that the Council will promote the growth and expansion of Cultural and Creative Industries and has committed
to delivering a network of centres across the borough.
The tech sector has been identified as a high growth sector in Croydon and the CMC is one of the fastest growing tech clusters in London. The delivery of a focussed tech hub to support local tech businesses will support the continued growth of local tech businesses and the wider Croydon tech community.
A number of commercial businesses operating in The Crystal Palace Triangle fall within the Creative and Cultural sector, many of which are in poor condition and in need of repair. There is also a lack of business support and advice for micro-sized businesses.
Where are we now?
Supported by the grassroots network ‘Croydon Tech City’, Croydon is now home to more than 1,000 start-ups and now ranks as the fastest-growing tech cluster in London.
To meet the growth in demand for start-up accommodation, particularly aimed at
the technology and wider creative sector a number of new developments have
been brought forward. Specifically, Sussex University’s Croydon Innovation
Centre opened in September 2015 at One Croydon next to East Croydon Station.
Stanley Halls is undergoing a significant transformation following a substantial
award by the Heritage Lottery Fund to develop the historic halls into a community
hub with allied new start and micro businesses space within this mixed use
development. The development programme is managed by the Stanley Halls
People’s Initiative following the Community Asset Transfer (CAT) from Croydon
Council in September 2015.
A bid was submitted to the Mayor’s/GLA’s ‘High Street Regeneration Fund’ for The Crystal Palace Triangle proposal in 2015 and was unfortunately unsuccessful.
What are the next steps for 2016?
In spring 2016 the UK’s largest tech hub will open in the Croydon Council owned
Davis House, currently being redeveloped as a joint scheme between Croydon
and the Greater London Authority (GLA) to provide touchdown, co-working, start
up space, café and accelerator services amounting to 21,000 sq. ft. gross
floorspace.
The Enterprise Hub at Croydon Voluntary Action centre has delivered a support
programme to new start businesses and social enterprises in the area and
following the end of the GLA contract a review is being conducted to assess next
steps. This assessment is being supported by an award from the City Bridge
Trust’s Stepping Stones programme.
An enterprise hub is proposed for Purley.

LEARNING CITY PROGRAMME: UNIVERSITY CENTRE CROYDON
What?
Introduction of postgraduate qualifications (Masters) in Business and Management in partnership with the University of Sussex
Where?
Croydon Opportunity Area
When?
September 2017
Why?
There is strong evidence of demand for postgraduate qualifications within the local catchment area providing the opportunity to develop University Centre Croydon as a major provider of higher education in South London. These developments are supported by the University of Sussex and Croydon Council. The proposal by Croydon Council to relocate Croydon College across College Green and to create a state of the art University Centre and Institute of Technology support the further development of higher education and response to government priorities within the borough.
Where are we now?
University Centre Croydon and the University of Sussex are working in partnership to deliver the vision of a broad range of postgraduate qualifications offered by the University Centre Croydon and to establish an Institute of Technology in South London to contribute to the science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (STEAM) agenda.
What are the next steps for 2016?
University Centre Croydon will continue to work in partnership with the University of Sussex and Croydon Council to introduce a broader range of undergraduate and postgraduate programmes offered by UCC in the centre of Croydon in the medium term with postgraduate programmes in Business being delivered from 2017.

CREATIVE CITY PROGRAMME: FAIRFIELD HALLS
What?
Redevelopment of Fairfield Halls
Where?
Croydon Opportunity Area
When?
By 2018
Why?
The redevelopment of the Fairfield Halls forms part of the Fairfield Masterplan. It has been Croydon’s principal cultural venue and community meeting place for over 50 years. It hosts a range of local, regional and national events; concerts, plays, ballet, opera and pantomimes. The building is locally listed and is a good example of post war civic architecture in the mould of the Royal Festival Hall. However parts of the building are in need of investment and nearing the end of their useful life. The inflexibility of the spaces makes the venue increasingly difficult for it to remain economically viable.
Where are we now?
In September 2014, Cabinet agreed to integrate the Fairfield Halls modernisation project with the wider College Green development.
In 2015 a pre-application process progressed for a Council led scheme covering
the entire Fairfield Masterplan area including the refurbishment of the Fairfield Halls which will include improvements to the Get In, Concert Hall, Arnhem Gallery and new services within the building. Further to this, a new active frontage onto College Green will be provided from the Ashcroft Theatre side of the building.
A hybrid planning application has been submitted for the refurbishment to the Fairfield Halls, development of the College Car Park for new homes, and public realm improvements around College Green as the detailed first phase. The area will be a key part of the Councils ambitions for a cultural and educational quarter for central Croydon.
The Council led a project to clear car parking from the Fairfield Forecourt and to make repairs to the space in line with the Fairfield Masterplan
What are the next steps for 2016?
To submit a planning application in early 2016, ahead of commencing works to the Halls in Summer of 2016. It is the intention to close the Halls for the duration of the works.
Risks and Mitigation
Risks: Delay due to the complex nature of the planning application
Mitigation: Careful working with local planning authority and good project management. Most of the improvements are internal so initial works can proceed ahead of the decision on planning application.

CONNECTED CITY PROGRAMME: STATION IMPROVEMENTS
What?
Full reconstruction of East Croydon Station with extended passenger concourse, additional entrances, 8 platforms in total, additional tracks north of the station and grade separation of key railway junctions in the Selhurst area.
Improvements to Norwood Junction station, including step-free access and Thameslink serving this station
Improvements to West Croydon Station Interchange, aspirations for a cycling hub
Where?
East Croydon, West Croydon and Norwood Junction stations
When?
By 2023
Why?
East Croydon station needs to be rebuilt with additional platforms, additional tracks, expanded concourse space and grade separation (Selhurst area) to allow
more trains to be accommodated on the Brighton Main Line as a whole, and to improve train service performance.
Alterations to Norwood Junction and West Croydon are sought by Croydon Council.
Where are we now?
Network Rail has a design team working on the upgrade to the Brighton Main Line, which would include reconstruction of East Croydon station. Croydon Council officers are working closely with Network Rail on the emerging details.
What are the next steps for 2016?
Further Network Rail design activity to take place for the East Croydon area.
Support for BML project in emerging Croydon Local Plan update.
Consultation to be planned with those affected once the potential impacts are known.
Risks and Mitigation The projects are currently not funded. East Croydon is currently funded for design only.

CONNECTED CITY PROGRAMME: RAIL CAPACITY INCREASES
What?
Train lengthening on the London to Brighton Line and branches
Completion of the Thameslink Programme
Network Rail Control Period 6 main line capacity proposals
Network Rail Control Period 7 and beyond main line capacity proposals
Transport for London capacity proposals for the London suburban area
Where?
The principal train lengthening opportunities are on the Uckfield Line (to 10-car diesel) and on Thameslink services (to 12-car) at East Croydon Station.
When?
Most train lengthening is planned by 2018.
A train service increase is planned in 2018 following Thameslink completion, but will be minor at this stage due to being restricted by capacity available through East Croydon area.
Train service increments could occur in 2023 following assumed completion of the East Croydon area element of Network Rail’s Control Period 6 proposals.
Further train service increments could occur by 2030 following assumed completion of a Network Rail’ Control Period 7 scheme, which would involve work elsewhere on the Brighton Main Line.
Why?
In 2018 the capacity of the mainline Central London to Brighton railway through East Croydon will be marginally increased upon completion of the Thameslink
Programme. This will relieve overcrowding but will not resolve the problem at peak times due to the East Croydon major constraint, further measures are required with major works to eliminate this constraint.
Where are we now?
Network Rail has a design team working on the upgrade to the Brighton Main Line. Croydon Council officers are working closely with Network Rail on the emerging details.
Network Rail’s Control Period 6 proposals would enhance railway infrastructure in the critical East Croydon area and allow more trains, by:
8 platforms at East Croydon station
2 extra tracks between East Croydon station and Windmill Bridge Junction
Grade separation of the capacity constraining flat junction conflicts in the Selhurst triangle
What are the next steps for 2016?
Further Network Rail design activity to take place for the Brighton Main Line upgrade.
Support for BML project in emerging Croydon Local Plan update.
Consultation to be planned with those affected once the potential impacts are known.
Risks and Mitigation
Brighton Main Line upgrade is not currently a funded project.
Norwood Junction and West Croydon are not currently funded projects.

CONNECTED CITY PROGRAMME: TRAMLINK
What? TfL is planning a wide range of improvement on the Tram Network for the next 15 years which are outlined in TfL’s Trams 2030 Strategy. The Strategy sets out options for doubling capacity of the existing network which could see passenger numbers increase to over 50m per annum. The proposals can be summarised as follows:
Wimbledon line enhancement project: doubling of some single track sections between Morden Road and Mitcham Junction and installation of a second platform at Wimbledon to permit a 12tph service on the Wimbledon branch.
Wellesley Road tram stop: widening slight relocation of tram stop
George Street tram stop: widening/moving of tram stop
Dingwall Road Loop: construction of new tram loop between East Croydon and Wellesley Road via Dingwall Road
South Wimbledon Spur: new 800m spur from Morden Road to South Wimbledon, providing new connectivity between the Opportunity Area and the Northern Line
Reeves Corner/Old Town turn back or loop: a platform, siding or loop to turn back from west when the town centre loop is unavailable
Reeves Corner westbound tram stop: to allow trams towards Wimbledon to call at Reeves Corner and permit clock-wise interchange around town centre loop.
Wandle Park flyover doubling
Phipps Bridge to Morden Road double-tracking
Beckenham branch capacity: additional capacity to the east of the network
Elmers End line enhancements: creation of a second tram platform and double-tracking of the station approach
Longer and more frequent trams and additional tram stabling to provide circa 50% more capacity
Where? Borough-wide and including adjacent boroughs including Merton, Sutton and Bromley
When? By 2030
Why? The tram system in Croydon is owned and operated by TfL. It has proved to be very popular but as a result there is now crowding on several stretches of the existing route, including the approach from Sandilands and along the Wimbledon branch. Further improvements are necessary to enable the tram system to accommodate new demand from the Opportunity Area and access the borough. In general passenger numbers are growing and trams remain an important method of transport for London’s growing population. Expansion and increased capacity across the tram network could help to provide additional homes and regeneration around the tram network.
Where are we now? Construction works for the Wimbledon line enhancements are now complete, with the newly double-tracked sections in use since November 2015. Feasibility work is underway for the Wandle Park flyover, South Wimbledon spur, Elmers End line enhancements and longer trams.
In addition to these improvements TfL is also considering options for extending the tram Network to Sutton Town Centre from South Wimbledon, with a further extension to Belmont. Discussions with affected boroughs are ongoing. This will provide links to new destinations from Croydon and will be considered as part of the wider upgrade.
What are the next steps for 2016? The new Wimbledon branch service pattern is expected to operate from spring 2016. Further feasibility and option development work is planned for the Wandle Park flyover, Phipps Bridge to Morden Road double tracking, Elmers End double tracking and the South Wimbledon spur. A Transport and Works Act Order (TWAO) application is expected to be submitted in 2016 for the Dingwall Road Loop. There is also an opportunity to consider housing and regeneration around the tram network. A number of the schemes identified above remain unfunded and business cases will need to be developed to finalise costs and inform of new funding opportunities. TfL and the Council as well as other affected authorities will need to design and cost further works and identify funding streams.
Risks and Mitigation Key risks associated with these proposals include, but are not limited to, securing third-party funding, reaching agreement with Network Rail and local authorities, and internal business planning mechanisms. In the town centre there are a number of crosscutting objectives around public realm and surface transport modes which will need to be overcome.
A key constraint relates to finding suitable locations for depots and stabling, as the tram network can only carry an optimal amount of trams unless additional facilities are found.

CONNECTED CITY PROGRAMME: BUS NETWORK
What?
Bus priority measures within the town centre and on main corridors leading into the town centre to ensure bus journey times and performance is maintained and where possible enhanced. Bus priority at other key junctions and part of the network serving other key centres may also be considered.
Additional buses and bus capacity to allow service increases due to demand generated by new development and regeneration in the town centre and close to strategic routes, this may also include, and where appropriate to respond to locally significant demands.
Enhanced passenger information systems and provision at stops and passenger waiting facilities across the borough.
Wandle Road bus stand and other stand facilities across the borough to ensure services are regulated and performance maintained including bus driver facilities. Other facilities for example at Cane Hill campus where bus rerouting and bus driver facilities have been secured.
Accessibility and safety improvements at bus stops and bus facilities.
Redevelopment of West Croydon Bus Station and future maintenance or upgrade of East Croydon Station. Other opportunities may need to be considered to support large scale growth in the town centre and elsewhere in the borough.
Where?
Borough-wide
When?
By 2031
Why? Bus travel accounts for a large proportion of the journeys to work in Croydon and many schools and shopping trips. With limited scope to increase the capacity of
the road network, the bus network will become even more important. The bus network is critical in accommodating increased demand. This will require additional standing space in Croydon.
Where are we now?
Standing space is currently at capacity at both the Old Town and West Croydon Bus station with further facilities under threat from development. Discussions are on-going about the options of relocating existing on-street standing to an off-street location, potentially at Wandle Road. Other bus facilities and services elsewhere in the borough away form the town centre will need to be considered and provided where necessary and appropriate.
What are the next steps for 2016? High level discussions are taking place about the property agreement for Wandle Road and investigation works are planned which will inform the design.
Construction of the West Croydon Bus Station is ongoing and expected to be completed for summer 2016. TfL is currently working on a Bus Priority Study for Croydon OAPF area that will be undertaken later this year.
Risks and Mitigation
Reduced bus journey times and performance of the network due to new development, network changes and public realm schemes
Lack of S106 funding from development to pay for service upgrades and facilities as capacity is not sufficient to meet growth in demand from development and regeneration.
Shortage of bus standing space to regulate the network (e.g. if planning permission cannot be secured for Wandle Road).
Bus services need to be considered across the borough and look more widely than the town centre.
The costs and funder / deliverer provided in the table below need to be considered in further detail and agreed.

Network of Quietways and Cycle Highways connecting wider Croydon to the Croydon Opportunity Area
Cycling measures at key junctions
Other cycle links
Cycle-friendly Croydon Metropolitan Area
Where?
Borough-wide
When?
By 2018-2020
Why?
New and improved cycling infrastructure is needed to support the Mayor’s objectives to see a shift to more sustainable modes of travel in and around the Opportunity Area. This will release pressure on the wider road and public
transport network, improved cycle safety and the health and well-being of our citizens. The Opportunity Area Planning Framework highlights Croydon as a location with high potential to increase levels of cycling, due to its suitability for the required cycling infrastructure to be implemented. This is due to the number of short trips made by car which could be made by bike and the fact that the residents predicted to be living in the Opportunity Area only require a small amount of encouragement to begin cycling.
Where are we now?
Work is already underway in and around the Opportunity Area through the Council’s Connected Croydon programme and Quietways Initiative with the aim of making Croydon one of the most cycle-friendly cities in Europe. Route delivery plan has been completed for the first Quietway. Cycle facilities have been implemented at East Croydon station and there are aspirations for the same facilities at West Croydon.
What are the next steps for 2016?
Implementation of Quietways.

On-going
Why?
The enhancements required in Croydon to ease bottlenecks and make the existing network more efficient in handling flows are set out in the Transport Strategy. Other improvements are required to achieve continuous improvements to road safety. Such a programme would draw in part upon Croydon’s Local Implementation Plan (LIP). Improvements to the road system and associated infrastructure can assist other elements of the Local Plan, reduce journey times, aid pedestrian accessibility and foster the use of electric vehicles and other environmentally friendly transport.
Where are we now?
Introduction of a signalised pedestrian crossing facility to improve road safety and promote walking within the surrounding area at Woodside Green/Spring Lane/Portland Road is due for completion mid February 2016.
Provision of new toucan controlled crossing facility to improve road safety and assist cycling at Roman Way/Rectory Grove has been delayed until Spring 2016. This is subject to TfL being able to complete the work on behalf of the Council.
The relocation of a traffic signal to improve capacity and reduce vehicular delays at Church Road/Westow Street was completed in July 2014.
What are the next steps for 2016?
Studies are underway to look at several major junctions in the borough to
improving facilities and especially road safety for vehicular traffic, pedestrians,
cyclists and other vulnerable users.
Consultation on the borough wide 20mph areas will continue and will be
implemented where residents want them.
Further improvements to bus routes and bus stops in the borough is to continue,
to enable better access to public transport for all.
Risks and Mitigation
Many schemes are subject to statutory consultation and the outcome of these is
not guaranteed.
Cost and time are the other major unknown elements. As with any construction project these can change as studies and designs progress.

CONNECTED CITY PROGRAMME: A23/A232 CORRIDOR IMPROVEMENTS
What?
A23/A232 corridor improvements
Where?
Borough-wide
When?
By 2021
Why? The A23 and A232 corridor suffers severe congestion in peak periods with delays at major junctions. Improvements are needed to reduce congestion, improve road safety, reduce severance for pedestrians and cyclists and address local environmental and air quality problems.
Where are we now?
A major improvement scheme at the Fiveways junction, a key intersection between the A23 and A232, is being prioritised and funded by TfL and the Council to relieve existing and future congestion and capacity constraints. It also seeks to provide benefits to pedestrians, cyclists and where possible, buses. Construction is anticipated to be completed by 2020, subject to gaining the necessary consents and approvals.
Improvements to Park Lane Gyratory on the A232 will be delivered by the developer as part of the approved Whitgift Shopping Centre redevelopment. It is anticipated that these will also be completed in 2020, subject to gaining the necessary consents and approvals.
An A23/A232 corridor study has been produced by TfL and the Council and has categorised the highway network and identified opportunities and constraints. A number of potential scheme options on the A23 corridor were also developed at Thornton Heath Pond, Lombard Roundabout and Purley Gyratory and the A232
Corridor (Addiscombe Road/Chepstow Road). These schemes would deliver a range of mainly local benefits including maintaining or improving movement, capacity, reducing severance for pedestrians and cyclists and improving the urban realm. These schemes currently have no funding committed. To support any measures on the A23 and A232, local area interventions will also be necessary to ensure appropriate links between these strategic routes and the Opportunity Area are delivered, including identification of funding sources.
What are the next steps for 2016?
For the Fiveways junction, TfL and Croydon have agreed Proposal 2 (widening the existing bridge and Epsom Road) as the Preferred Option for Fiveways Croydon. This will be announced in February 2016 followed by a further consultation in Autumn 2016. Ahead of the public consultation the concept design work including traffic modelling, environmental assessment and structural design will be undertaken. TfL and the Council will also work with Network Rail in agreeing bridge works and possessions.
The Council and TfL will work together, and where appropriate to bring forward more detailed options for other junctions on the A23/A232 in order to support growth and regeneration and to mitigate specific development impacts.
Risks and Mitigations
Lack of funding for development and delivery of further A23/A232 schemes. The costs and funder / deliverer provided in the table adjacent need to be considered in further detail and agreed.
Ongoing traffic impacts on the network during construction of Fiveways and ensuring the necessary approvals and consents are achieved.
Traffic issues in the town centre being displaced to the strategic network due to changes in the function of roads and reduced capacity.
Ensuring bus capacity and reliability is maintained and where possible improved.

Where are we now?
Five twin-headed charging points were installed in Council and Croydon NHS car parks, funded by the government’s Office for Low Emission Vehicles in May 2015. The electric vehicle charging points in Lion Green Road Council surface car park have been removed during construction of the site. New upgraded points will be installed on the service road to the site, and the development itself will host a considerable number of electric vehicle charging points. Other existing charging points have been serviced.
Those in Purley High Street are due to be replaced with upgraded units in 2016. There are a further thirty public points in the borough. Southern Rail have a large programme for their stations. The Croydon Business Fair in October 2015 again featured an ‘Ecodrive’ show of electric cars, vans and bicycles from mainstream manufacturers.
What are the next steps for 2016?
Grants and other funding are being lined up to locate 5-50 standard and 5-10 ‘Rapid’ charging points in the next 3-5 years, and for a big increase in the number of car club vehicles with a view to 50% of these bays having electric vehicle charging points by 2025. A reasonable public network of fast and rapid points would cost £1/2m to £1m over the next 3 years and will be installed where suitable sites can be found. For the time being public installations would be made where grants and other sources provide 100% funding.
Risks and Mitigation
Charging points remain costly to install and operate so each location has to have potential for high use over a prolonged period. To mitigate the risk the Council is considering signing the new variation to the contract for the pan-London network of charging points, Source London, with Blue Point London. Blue Point London will assess existing and new sites and install 7kW points, operate and maintain them for free, however, users would have to pay each time.
Croydon will enable other operators to host electric vehicle charging points in the borough. In the event of accepting the Source London Agreement, the Council will work with Blue Point London to identify more sites each year.
In addition, new developments will continue to be required to enable electric vehicle charging points on 20% of on-site parking bays, plus 50% of any Blue Badge bays.

What?
Replacement of ageing street lighting and illuminated signs stock
Where?
Borough-wide
When?
The Street Lighting PFI is a 25 year capital investment and maintenance contract (2011-2036) consisting of an initial 5 year Core Investment Programme.
Why?
A joint project between the London Borough of Croydon and the London Borough of Lewisham will include the replacement of approximately 46,000 street light and traffic signs over a 5 year period.
Where are we now?
The Core Investment Programme is in the final year of the five year programme but not progressing at the pace required to complete the programme within 5 years.

SUSTAINABLE CITY PROGRAMME: ALLOTMENTS
What?
Develop community engagement and increase amount of plots that can be sustainably cultivated
Where?
Borough-wide at six direct let sites
When?
On-going
Why?
Croydon has 17 allotments located within the borough; 6 are managed by Environment and Leisure, 9 are self-managed and 2 are private sites. There is a demand for allotments throughout the borough. There are specific areas of high demand in the north of the borough, particularly in Upper Norwood where residential gardening opportunities and open spaces are limited.
Where are we now?
The Allotment’s review process is underway as part of the parks review. Once published, the parks review will set the agenda for future developments.
What are the next steps for 2016?
There will be a review of charges and greater levels of participation and engagement. The payment system on Croydon MyAccount will be streamlined. The Council will seek inward investment into allotment infrastructure, particularly focussing on water supply.
Risks and Mitigation
Resources finite. Risks for full compliance with water supply regulations.

SUSTAINABLE CITY PROGRAMME: SPORTS AND LEISURE FACILITIES
What?
New leisure centres and outdoor sports facilities
Where?
Purley, New Addington, Heathfield and South Norwood
When?
The programmes for New Addington and Heathfield are expected to commence construction in the financial year 2016/17, subject to funding. The programme for Purley is to be confirmed. The South Norwood programme is a longer term, from 2017/18
Why?
The Indoor Sports Facilities Strategy has identified the replacement of the leisure centres at Purley and New Addington Leisure Centres as top priorities to meet borough-wide and local demand for modern, good quality, affordable sports provision. New Addington Leisure Centre is 50 years old and is reaching the end of its useful life. Purley Leisure Centre opened more recently but forms part of a large, underutilised and unsightly building. Both centres are costly to maintain and the condition of each leisure centre detrimentally impacts on the number of people visiting the centres. In both cases, the centres could form part of a large mixed-use development focused on the regeneration of the respective District Centres.
Development of the football and athletics facilities at Monks Hill Sports Centre in Heathfield and Croydon Arena in South Norwood will form an important part of the
borough’s outdoor sports strategy going forward. At Monks Hill, the existing artificial pitch has reached the end of its life and a new modern, 3rd generation pitch is required to meet the growing demand for good quality training and match facilities for club, community and casual use. The outdoor sports facilities at Croydon Arena are in a poor and deteriorating condition and redevelopment and improvement will be needed to provide a high quality outdoor sports facility to address demand and increase sports participation in the north of the borough.
Where are we now?
For New Addington, the Council is working with multi-disciplinary consultants to design and develop the new leisure centre and secure planning approval. For Purley, the Council is working with the main leaseholder to consider options. For Monks Hill, a business plan has been developed and funding is being sought to support the proposal. For Croydon Arena, early stage discussions have taken place with national sports bodies to look at long-term options for developing the facility.
What are the next steps for 2016?
For New Addington, the next step is submission of a planning application in 2016/17. For Purley, options for the redevelopment of the site will be assessed. For Monks Hill, installation of a new pitch in summer 2016, is dependent on successful funding applications and on making the strategic case for funding with national sports bodies. For Croydon Arena, proposals will be worked up as part of the Outdoor Sports Facilities Strategy along with development of a business plan for the centre.

SUSTAINABLE CITY PROGRAMME: FLOOD AND WATER MANAGEMENT
What?
Flood and water management
Where?
Borough-wide
When?
On-going
Why?
The Flood and Water Management Act 2010 made the London Borough of Croydon the Lead Local Flood Authority for Croydon. As the Lead Local Flood Authority the Council is responsible for leading and co-ordinating the management of local flood risk.
Croydon is at risk of flooding predominantly from surface water and ground water sources. During the winter months of 2014 Purley and Kenley experienced significant flooding from the Caterham Bourne due to exceptional rainfall and extremely high groundwater. The flooding was declared an emergency, with a significant operation taking place to protect homes and businesses and to avoid the shutdown of the Kenley water treatment works.
Where are we now?
A Local Flood Risk Management Strategy has been produced which sets the borough’s priorities for dealing with local flood risk management across Croydon. It also contains an Action Plan to set out a delivery plan for managing flood risk over the next six years. This was adopted at Cabinet in November 2015.
What are the next steps for 2016?
The Council plans to continue working through its Action Plan and work with key partners such as the Environment Agency, Thames Water, Sutton and East Surrey Water and neighbouring authorities to investigate and implement flood alleviation measures in the borough. For the Caterham Bourne Flood Alleviation Scheme there has been a delay with the modelling due to a lack of groundwater data. There are plans to undertake a consultation questionnaire to get additional information from residents in Croydon and Surrey. For the Kenley Flood Alleviation Scheme the consultants will now progress with modelling the alternative options which have been identified.
Risks and Mitigation
The risks envisaged are:
Changes in government policies
Ability to attract funding from central government
Lack of resources
Significant flood events
One of the actions in the Local Flood Risk Management Strategy is to explore other sources of funding so that we are able to deliver our programme.

SUSTAINABLE CITY PROGRAMME: ELECTRICITY
What?
Maintenance, renewal and replacement of the electricity supply infrastructure and delivery of an additional substation
Where?
Borough-wide
When?
On-going, with projects scheduled up to 2023
Why?
The local network of electricity supply is owned and operated under licence by UK Power Networks. The adoption of the Croydon Local Plan: Strategic Policies and the proposed growth in the Opportunity Area is expected to result in 22MW of new demand. A further feature of the supply network over the period of the plan will be the introduction of local generation on homes and commercial building through local wind turbines and photovoltaic systems.
An additional primary substation will be required for any demand beyond the existing capacity of Croydon Grid, Croydon A, Croydon Central and East Croydon due to growth in the Opportunity Area.
Where are we now? An additional substation in the town centre is required in the near future. As such the Croydon North primary substation is identified by UKPN as providing a solution to future power needs in this area. Network maintenance and new adhoc connections are on-going.
What are the next steps for 2016?
Engagement with all stakeholders and to understand detailed power needs
Risks and Mitigation Cable route wayleaves and consents are identified as a major risk and hindrance to smooth development of the electricity network.
Risk mitigation to be achieved by continuous engagement and early warning of future project plans.

When?
To 2031
Why?
The supply of secure, safe and reliable water supply to Croydon for the period to 2036 to meet both the needs of the existing community and new growth is primarily the responsibility of two regulated water companies: Thames Water and Sutton and East Surrey Water. Both companies bring forward 5 year business plans for the conduct of and investment in their business.
Where are we now?
Over the last 12 months Thames Water has initiated a number of projects to improve resilience within the supply system.
What are the next steps for 2016?
Addington Water Treatment Works: The raw water is filtered through a continuous micro-filtration (CMF) process which relies on replaceable membrane units. Membrane replacement will commence in 2016.
Crystal Palace and Norwood Water Booster Stations: Standby Generators are due to be commissioned in early 2016. Modernisation of the control systems to improve operational control will be completed in early 2016.
A study to ensure that levels of service within the water supply zone is resilient to current and forecast demand is due for completion in 2016.

What?
Maintenance and renewal of existing sewerage infrastructure and new infrastructure to support growth
Where?
Borough-wide
When?
On-going
Why?
A systematic pattern of renewal will be needed for the sewerage network. Croydon’s waste water is treated at three major sewage works:
Beddington treats 65% of the flow. These works are fit for purpose although prior to 2015, investment in sludge dewatering will take place. A growth upgrade will be delivered during AMP6 (between 2015 and 2020)
Long Reach on the Thames at Dartford takes 30% of the flow and has recently been subject to major upgrade. A sludge treatment upgrade to the STW is nearing completion.
Crossness in Bexley takes the majority of other flows and will also see investment in dewatering plant. The Thames Tideway Quality Improvements upgrade is nearing completion and a sludge treatment upgrade is nearing completion.
Where are we now?
Beddington Sewage Treatment Works: Combined Heat and Power upgrade to commence in early 2015. An application for buildings required in association with the growth upgrade and the provision of a new control building was approved by Sutton Council in December 2015.
Long Reach Sewage Treatment Works: a sludge treatment upgrade is nearing completion.
Crossness Sewage Treatment Works: a sludge treatment upgrade incorporating a new thermal hydrolysis plant is nearing completion.
What are the next steps for 2016?
An upgrade to provide a control building and improvements to the sewage treatment processes will take place at Beddington.

SUSTAINABLE CITY PROGRAMME: SUSTAINABLE ENERGY
What?
Croydon Opportunity Area District Heating
Where?
Croydon Opportunity Area
When?
By 2031
Why?
The strategic direction for provision of energy set by the Mayor requires that at least 25% of London’s energy needs are provided by low carbon and decentralised energy sources by 2025. The existing density and mix of property types within the Opportunity Area Planning Framework are already well suited to the development of district heating as a means of providing low carbon, low cost heat. The future development and planned growth for the Opportunity Area Planning Framework provides an ideal opportunity to deliver district heating to provide:
Lower cost compliance with CO2 targets for new development
Lower cost upgrade to low carbon heating for existing buildings
Affordable, low carbon heat for building occupants
Local, more affordable electricity generation
Future proof heat supply network – can be upgraded to lower carbon and renewable fuels more easily than upgrading each individual building
Where are we now?
Feasibility work and network/plant sizing has established that there is a sufficient heat demand to support a district heat network. Feasibility and options work has been completed for the siting of the centralised energy centre.
What are the next steps for 2016?
To complete feasibility work. This will involve:
Heat/load profiling based on review of heat loads from existing and current phasing of new development in COA
Mapping the heat distribution network across the town centre
Establishing plant size/design
Commercial modelling
Procurement of first phase of scheme, assuming that the business plan is agreed.
Risks and Mitigation
Key risk is securing long term heat supply contracts with customers. This risk will be mitigated via engagement with all key developers and asset owners. Upfront capital investment will only be committed when such contracts are secured and a commercial partner is in place.

SUSTAINABLE CITY PROGRAMME: FAIRFIELD MASTERPLAN
What?
Public realm improvements
Where?
Croydon Opportunity Area
When?
By 2026
Why?
The Fairfield Masterplan has been prepared jointly by Croydon Council and local stakeholders to realise the area’s potential and rediscover its role as a thriving regional destination for culture and learning. A master planning team led by Make and Kinnear Landscape Architects developed proposals over a year of engagement and consultation with local groups. The Masterplan provides a phased long-term framework for delivering the transformation of the area. Crucially, it also involves proposals for making change happen now.
Where are we now?
In 2014, planning permission was given to two significant developments in the Fairfield Masterplan area on the vacant Croydon College site (FF8) and the former Essex House site (FF3). These approved plans include a requirement on the developers to deliver a key public realm component from the Fairfield Masterplan, the upgraded ‘station link’ from George Street to College Green (FF11).
In 2015 a pre-application process has progressed for a Council led scheme covering the entire Fairfield Masterplan area. The intention is that a hybrid planning application will be made with a refurbishment to the Fairfield Halls, development of the College Car Park and public realm improvements around College Green as the detailed first phase and the remainder of the area covered by parameters and a design code.
The Council led a project to clear car parking from the Fairfield Forecourt and make repairs to the space in line with the Fairfield Masterplan.
In 2015 the BID launched a crowd funding campaign with support from the Council to upgrade the College Square public space in line with the Fairfield Masterplan. The crowd funding campaign is pending an outcome.
What are the next steps for 2016?
A hybrid planning application for the entire Fairfield Masterplan area is expected to be granted.
The Council is working with stakeholders to bring forward early win improvements.

SUSTAINABLE CITY PROGRAMME: OLD TOWN MASTERPLAN
What?
Public realm improvements
Where?
Croydon Opportunity Area
When?
By 2026
Why?
The Old Town Masterplan sets out how the area of Old Town could be improved for people living, working and shopping in the area over the next 20 years. It is a supplementary planning document that sets the parameters for development of the buildings, streets and public spaces in Old Town and also look at how movement in, out and around the area could be improved by all modes of transport. It also recommends how the heritage assets of the area can be preserved, enhanced and celebrated.
Where are we now?
The Old Town Masterplan was adopted by Full Council on 1st December 2014. Work has progressed in 2015 to deliver MRF improvements to the public realm on Church Street. These follow on from works that made environmental improvements to Reeves Corner in advance of future redevelopment in line with the adopted Masterplan.
MRF funded proposals for meanwhile uses at Reeves Corner have achieved planning consent.
Proposals for Sustrans and LIP funded environmental and public realm improvements have been developed during 2015.

SUSTAINABLE CITY PROGRAMME: PUBLIC REALM IMPROVEMENTS
What?
A programme of public works to improve Croydon’s streets, squares and open spaces
Where?
Borough-wide
When?
On-going
Why?
The Council successfully secured £50m of funding in 2012 for the first phase of Connected Croydon. This included £23m from the London Mayor's Regeneration Fund, to upgrade the town centre and other places to create the ideal conditions for investment. Connected Croydon covers projects under the Croydon Opportunity Area only.
Since then further funding has been secured to deliver first phase public realm improvements in Old Town and to delivery improvements in Norbury, Thornton Heath and South Norwood District Centres.
This will lead to a more prosperous, thriving Croydon. Further investment throughout the plan period is necessary to create an attractive environment that will secure inward investment and establish the right conditions for a growing residential community, as well as for those who work in and visit Croydon.
Where are we now?
Phase 1—underway
East Croydon interchange public realm phase 1: unlocking east-west pedestrian link, providing a transport interchange with a joined up public realm and a 21st century station.

Where?
Thornton Heath
When?
2015-2017
Why?
As an important District Centre to the north of central Croydon, and one of the Borough’s 16 Places, Thornton Heath has a distinct and specific identity that holds significant potential. Its busy high street acts as a hub for the local community and plays an important role in the local economic life of this part of Croydon; however its businesses needs support to guarantee their future sustainable success and Thornton Heath’s offer needs to diversify to better provide for existing and future residents.
Where are we now? Initial dialogue and engagement has occurred with local residents, community groups and ward councillors on project areas to focus on quick wins and what their aspirations are for Thornton Heath High Street. Certain shops have been
selected for building frontage improvements and dialogue with these individual businesses is occurring.
What are the next steps for 2016?
Over the next year the agreed quick wins will be undertaken on site. The public realm proposals will be presented to local residents, community groups and ward councillors for approval.
On-going discussions will occur with businesses that have been selected for shop frontage improvements to agree proposals prior to the submission of a formal planning application where required.
Risks and Mitigation
Potential predicted overspend on the project. Re-profile the outputs of the project or utilise the project contingency.
The proposed areas that are agreed result in larger costs then those forecast. Ensure the works within the agreed project areas meet the agreed budgets.
Lengthy TfL consents for physical works within the project areas could impact on delivery timescales. Regular liaising with TfL and Croydon Council Highways to ensure clarity over timings and required consents. Corporate backing to pursue change.

When?
By 2018
Why?
In 2009/10 the Council commissioned a study for future requirements and the recommendations estimated a need for 10,000 interments for the period up to 2031. Additional land is required to meet this demand.
Where are we now?
Sites within the borough were considered by the Council but were found to be unsuitable following detailed investigation regarding archaeology and groundwater. Following this, the decision was taken to pursue an extension of the Council owned cemetery in Tandridge. Croydon’s Bereavement Services team has met with officers in adjoining boroughs to discuss the proposal and to consider the scope for cross borough burial arrangements.
A planning application for the burial ground was submitted to Tandridge but permission was refused in February 2014. An appeal against this decision has been submitted but was not successful.
What are the next steps for 2016?
To consider the issues provided by the Planning Inspectorate for not upholding the appeal against the original planning application and to produce an action plan to mitigate the issues and based upon the findings above.
The Council will Identify an alternative solution or produce another planning proposal and application for any site believed to be suitable to meet the Councils needs.
Risks and Mitigation
Exhaust Stocks of new graves
Continue to implement steps to maintain a new grave provision at Greenlawns Memorial Park for as long as possible (estimated 12-18 months)
Continue to reclaim graves at Mitcham Road and Queens Road Cemeteries to provide a burial option in the Borough

CARING CITY PROGRAMME: PRIMARY HEALTHCARE PROVISION
What?
Provision of GP services and community healthcare services
Where?
Borough-wide
When?
By 2031
Why?
As part of the Infrastructure Delivery Plan and the Croydon Local Plan, the Council is currently working with NHS England, NHS Property Services, London HUDU, Croydon Health Services and Croydon CCG to identify suitable sites for primary healthcare provision.
Where are we now?
The Croydon Opportunity Area Development Infrastructure Funding Study (December 2014) has identified that growth in the Opportunity Area will require 10.7 additional Whole Time Equivalent (WTE) GPs. 8.4 new WTE GPs will be required by the end of 2021, with a demand for an additional 2.3 GPs between 2022 and 2031. The study estimates that the capital cost of providing floorspace to accommodate this demand is £4.2m. Croydon Clinical Commissioning Group is split into six GP networks. The majority of the housing and population growth in the Croydon Opportunity Area is located in the East Croydon network. The Croydon Local Plan: Detailed Policies has identified a need for additional healthcare facilities across the borough’s GP networks to accommodate the predicted population growth and to address existing floorspace shortfalls.
This equates to:
East Croydon – 3,830 sqm
Mayday-1,800sqm
Thornton Heath-2,360sqm
Woodside/Shirley- 2,560sqm
New Addington/Selsdon- 2,220sqm
Purley-3,170sqm
What are the next steps for 2016?
A number of suitable sites for primary healthcare provision have been identified in the Croydon Local Plan: Detailed Policies and Proposals (Preferred and Alternative Options). The CCG’s Interim Estates Strategy, in conjunction with the Local Plan review has identified three key opportunities: options for a new health facility in Croydon Town Centre; a new health care centre in New Addington (project underway); and a new health facility in Coulsdon (site identified).
Risks and Mitigation
Lack of capital investment and increased funding gap – need to keep CCG estates strategy and Infrastructure Delivery Plan under review.
New premises can incur recurring premises costs and must be affordable.
Impact of changes to primary care workforce and information technology will impact the estates needs.
Uncertainty over timing of population growth and development timescales.

CARING CITY PROGRAMME: SUPPORTED HOUSING FACILITIES
What?
Modernisation and provision of supported housing facilities
Where?
Borough wide
When?
On-going
Why?
Housing support enables vulnerable people to maintain their independence and to lead a normal life. It provides people with the support, skills and direction they need to help them get back on their feet and to achieve and sustain independent living. Investment in housing support reduces costs in homelessness, health services, tenancy failures, crime and residential care. Housing adaptions can help older people stay healthier and mobile and can also help reduce admissions to and length of stay in hospitals.
A review has taken place of the Older Person Housing Strategy, which will set out proposals for the future of sheltered and extra care housing for older people in the borough. Croydon has a need for supported housing facilities from three main groups of people:
Older people
Adults with support needs
Adults at risk of social exclusion
Where are we now?
Registered Providers of social housing and private landlords play an important role in supplying the accommodation where clients of housing related support live. The Council will support bids from registered providers of social housing to the Greater London Authority for capital funding to refurbish and build new specialist housing. This includes:
A hostel for homeless 16-17 year olds
A housing scheme of 20-25 flats for people with mental health problems in the 50-65 age range
Small cluster schemes of 6-10 flats for people with physical disabilities and people with learning disabilities
Self contained move-on flats for people in the latter stages of recovery from mental ill health
A sheltered housing scheme for older people
During 2015/16 a new purpose-built service was opened by Eldon Housing Association to re-provide existing hostel provision across a single site.
A potential site has been identified for self-contained move-on flats for people in the latter stage of recovery from mental ill health through a bid to the GLA by Quo Vadis.
Potential sites for a sheltered housing scheme and cluster flats for people with physical disabilities and / or learning disabilities have also been developed
What are the next steps for 2016?
To review identified housing needs across social care and supported housing.
To Work on mitigation plan to encourage registered providers and private developers to invest in supported housing.
To establish costs, and viable proposals for each identified development above.
Risks and Mitigation
Proposed 1% rent cut to supported housing schemes from 2016-2020. Registered providers have amended development plans and are likely to reduce plans and favour general needs / shared ownership. This has been part-mitigated by government agreeing to allow CPI +1% rent increase for 2016/17 instead.
Proposed reduction of all social rents to Local Housing Allowance rates. This has been modelled by NHF and other housing groups as likely to result in the closure of 25-95% of supported housing, unless exemptions for specified accommodation are agreed. To mitigate risk, modelling of impact has commenced and representations to be made through London Councils and London Region of Directors of Adult Social Services. Support providers are making their own representations. Issues being raised with Members for strategic response.
Right to buy extension to Housing Associations may result in cash flow and stock delay. Mitigation action to respond to findings of pilot and ensure impact on development of supported housing is considered and planned for.

When?
By 2021
Why?
The new Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime Estates Strategy sets out fundamental changes to the Metropolitan Police’s property portfolio in response to new ways of delivering policing in the borough.

CARING CITY PROGRAMME: LONDON FIRE BRIGADE
What?
Redevelopment of Purley Fire Station
Where?
Purley
When?
April 2016
Why?
The Brigade was awarded £51.5m from the Government in PFI credits to rebuild nine new stations in 2 phases which are designed to accommodate the new generation of fire appliances and to meet the current needs of the London Fire Brigade. 20% of the brigade’s stations have been categorized as not suitable for the operational requirement of a modern emergency service. Amongst these, Purley Fire Station has been identified as a high priority for redevelopment.
Where are we now? Constructed by Blue 3 (a Kier led consortium) the new Purley fire station is expected to be completed in April 2016. The community facilities in this station will be shared with the Met Police under licence arrangements.
What are the next steps for 2016?
The Brigade is proposing to deliver a third training centre to provide better geographical provision, as well as to increase the capacity and variety of training facilities, in support of the brigade’s professional workforce. The project brief is currently being developed in conjunction with internal clients and is also likely to require further input from the external training provider Babcock. Until the brief is finalised, the project budget of £8.5m is indicative only.
The current aspiration is to construct a new build facility on the existing Croydon fire station site and to deliver the facility by mid 2018 (subject to planning consent). To facilitate the new training centre, and at an additional estimated cost of £7.5m, the Brigade is also considering relocating its Protective Equipment Group (PEG) from the site as part of a rationalisation of the Brigade Distribution Centre and other distribution functions. A decision on these matters will be made later in 2016 which will inform the solution for the proposed new training centre.
