A23 Coulsdon Inner Relief Road

Scheme Outline

A new single carriageway three-lane road, realigning the A23 away from the main commercial area of Coulsdon, though the new road still passes through the town. It will terminate at a roundabout at each end, and along its length will have a normal traffic lane in each direction plus a special purpose bus, cycle and HGV lane northbound. This is the only road scheme so far to have been approved by anti-car London mayor, Ken Livingston.
