Homes already under construction 210 Number of homes in Purley in 20 years (the proposed Place target) 7,260 to 9,390 Description of the option Three-quarters of growth in Purley will be on windfall sites. Purley’s Conservation Areas will see little change. Further, the setting of Conservation Areas and Heritage Assets will need to be preserved and enhanced in all scenarios. Elsewhere there will be significant growth in much of Purley. The Town Centre has a number of site allocations where high density development can be expected. Those areas of Purley within 800m of the Town Centre (or a train station) will either see evolution of their existing character, or, in areas where homes are typically on larger plots of land, more focussed intensification which will see a gradual change of character to higher density forms of development. Elsewhere, in areas where homes are typically on larger plots of land, there will be moderate intensification resulting in a denser form of development that still relates to the existing character of the area. The council will promote extensions of the tram along the Purley Way towards Waddon, north from Purley Town Centre along the Brighton Road towards South Croydon/Central Croydon, and south from Purley Town Centre towards Coulsdon.

The town is already home to more than 13,000 places of work, which collectively employ a total of 141,000 people. Croydon has been dubbed the Silicon Valley of South London thanks to the proliferation of technology companies here, while other sectors include financial services and engineering. More than 20,000 further jobs are set to be created over the next few years, thanks to the redevelopment of the area which includes office accommodation, retail, restaurant and leisure space. Croydon’s redevelopment also includes major investment in its schools, with additional plans to partner with an international university to enhance its higher education presence.
