A programme of works worth more than £800,000 is underway across Croydon’s town centres.

It’s after the council successfully bid for the cash from the Government’s UK Shared Prosperity Fund programme.

It will be spent improving public realms and green spaces in West Croydon, New Addington, Thornton Heath and Selsdon.

Meanwhile, in Purley, the project will deliver public art, lighting and green space improvements.
