Croydon Council approved a street play policy in June 2014 and residents can now apply for regular road closures. The proposals were covered in the New Addington Advertiser and the council hopes for ten streets to get involved initially.
In July 2017 the first street in the town centre played out. You can read more about it here.

“I love Marie’s street. It’s so wide and they even have a speed bump!” – happy child after visiting a nearby playing out session.
