Know Your Way Around SE25
We treat SE25 as home ground: South Norwood, the boundary roads shared with SE24, SE26 and SE23, and the routes in from the Croydon side near Fairfield Halls. Name any corner of the district and a driver will know it.
Permit Zones, CPZs & Narrow Roads
The South Norwood side of SE25 is classic inner London: permit bays, school streets, width restrictions. Crews routing in via High Street Croydon deal with all of it daily, so the seized steering job gets done without a parking drama on top of a breakdown.
