A road has been cordoned off in South Croydon this afternoon (Friday) after smoke started coming out of a manhole cover.

“Depending on whether the whole of Aberdeen road was closed it wouldn't help anyone trying to get to South Croydon Station by car with St Peter's Road being one way north to south!”
