Driving in Addington
Addington, a charming village in the London Borough of Croydon, is nestled in a historic area rich with heritage sites and surrounded by scenic residential roads.

During school hours and weekends, the roads near primary schools and community centers are particularly busy, requiring drivers to stay alert.
