Traffic and highway impacts
Croydon Council approved a builder's merchant development in August 2026, despite resident concerns about highway impacts.
Croydon Council's Planning Committee granted permission in August 2026 for a new Travis Perkins builder's merchant at Selsdon Goods Yard, South Croydon. Residents and Councillor Michael Neill raised concerns about the development's potential highway impacts and increased vehicle movements.
The approved plans involve demolishing existing buildings and erecting three commercial buildings for a builder's merchant, including outdoor display and storage. Concerns about highway impacts were noted by residents and a councillor during the planning process.
