Croydon Flyover

A slip road at a junction with Old Town heading up onto the flyover.

The Croydon Flyover is a flyover located in Croydon, London, England. It is part of the A232 road which connects Orpington with Ewell. The flyover connects Park Lane and the Croydon Underpass, on the A212 road with Duppas Hill Road. It crosses over the A236, Old Town and Southbridge Road and the A212, Lower Coombe Street. The bypass also goes over Croydon High Street close to the Croydon Clocktower. The flyover was constructed as part of a ring road scheme conceived in the Croydon Plan of 1951 that has never been completed.

Landmarks passed on the flyover include the Fairfield Halls, a theatre and arts centre. The Wandle Road multi-storey car park is entered via the bypass, plus you can see the new Centrale Shopping Centre. The nearest tube station is at Morden, six miles to the north-west, although there is a direct tram connection from Croydon to the District line terminus at Wimbledon.

The Flyover was also used as a film location in the Danny Boyle Film 28 Days Later - In which a slip road was used by the taxi driving past a pile of bodies in the bleak environment around the flyover.
