Mar 23, 2016 09:28 GMT Changes to Southern and Gatwick Express services this Easter while engineering work takes place Passengers are being urged to check before travelling over Easter as major improvement work on the railway means Southern and Gatwick Express services will be amended over the Easter weekend of 25 – 28 March. The Network Rail project at Battersea, which replaces a major railway junction, means Southern and Gatwick Express trains will not be able to use London Victoria station. Southern will run a revised service on the rest of the network, but the Gatwick Express service will not run at all. Travel by train between London, Gatwick Airport and the coast will still be possible, from London Bridge or London Blackfriars using Southern or Thameslink trains. Work to a bridge over the River Arun means parts of the Horsham line will close for the weekend with rail replacement buses running instead, adding up to 60 minutes to the journey. Smaller projects are also taking part on some of the days across the network. A Southern and Gatwick express spokesperson said: “We're putting arrangements in place to keep passengers moving while these essential works are being done, but it will mean some passengers' journey times could be extended, or alternative routes should be used, so please check before you travel.” A summary of Easter services, rail replacement buses and alternative ticket acceptance on other operators can be found atsouthernrailway.com/easter2016. Details of journeys and train times are now available at nationalrail.co.uk For more information, contact the press office on 0203 750 2031. Govia Thameslink Railway Govia Thameslink Railway (GTR) operates Thameslink, Great Northern, Southern and Gatwick Express services as follows: • Thameslink – cross-London services between Bedford/Peterborough/Cambridge and Brighton/Horsham/Littlehampton/East Grinstead, and between Luton/St Albans and Sutton/Wimbledon/Rainham; plus services between London and Sevenoaks • Great Northern – services between London and Welwyn, Hertford, Peterborough, Cambridge and King’s Lynn • Southern – services between London and the Sussex coast (Brighton, Worthing, Eastbourne, Bognor Regis, Hastings) and parts of Surrey, Kent and Hampshire (Ashford International, Southampton, Portsmouth) • Gatwick Express – fast, non-stop direct services between Gatwick Airport and London Victoria (currently suspended during the pandemic) www.southernrailway.com, www.thameslinkrailway.com, www.gatwickexpres s.com, www.greatnorthernrail.com.

7 Altyre Rd, Croydon, Cr9 5Aa Croydon Park Hotel Croydon Park Hotel
7 ALTYRE RD, CROYDON, CR9 5AA CROYDON PARK HOTEL CROYDON PARK HOTEL EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Exceptional opportunity to purchase a prime freehold hotel in the centre of Croydon’s Commercial District. Substantial 137,000 sq. ft. full-service hotel with 211 guestrooms, car parking, food and beverage facilities, conferencing and event space and fitness and leisure facilities set on a1.54 acre site. The purpose-built Hotel opened in 1984 and was previously operated under an international hotel brand before operating independently until the hotel’s closure in 2020. Available with vacant possession, unencumbered by brand, franchise or management, providing optimal operational and development flexibility with substantial potential to increase value. Prime town centre location in the heart of Croydon in close proximity to East Croydon station, one of London’s busiest stations with 25 million passengers in 2019. Croydon has benefitted from significant recent investment and is set to benefit from further significant investment to regenerate the town centre. Croydon’s strategic position and excellent transport links make the town attractive to key corporate occupiers that have established Croydon as a premier business location in south London. Extensive asset management opportunities including: hotel repositioning; extension of the existing property; or redevelopment of the site to increase the massing and change of use (subject to obtaining the necessary planning and all other consents) to potentially superior alternative use values. The Hotel is situated in the Croydon Metropolitan Centre, the Croydon Opportunity Area and the ‘Edge Area’ for tall buildings, all of which are supportive in principle for additional massing on the site and for alternative uses, potentially unlocking more accretive development proposals.
