Transport for LondonLondon Trams
Skip to navigationThere were approximately 19.1 million passenger journeys made on the Croydon Tramlink in the last year (compared with 18.7 million the previous year).
This growing number of journeys has continued to reduce car use in Croydon with 20 per cent of passengers choosing to use the tram instead of their cars. The success of the tram continues to be attributed to the reliability of the service in linking important town centres, residential areas and employment locations and we are looking into the viability of extending the Croydon Tramlink.
Over the past year, TfL has been working on proposals for two new tram schemes in London. More detailed design options have been developed for the West London Tram proposal, which would run from Uxbridge to Shepherd's Bush.
At the end of 2003, we started to meet with local groups to discuss the proposals ahead of the public consultation starting in June 2004. Development work continued over the last year to establish whether or not the proposal to build the Cross River Tram, from King's Cross to Peckham, is feasible.
