Tram stop layout

IKEA Ampere Way tram stop is a halt on the Tramlink service in the London Borough of Croydon, serving the Purley Way commercial area. The stop is located opposite IKEA Croydon.

When the station opened, at the same time as Route 1, the station was named "Ampere Way" due to the proximity of the former Croydon Power Station. However due to passenger confusion as to which station to alight at for IKEA, the station name was changed in October 2006 to aid customers with their journey. The two chimneys from the old power station still exist, and they have IKEA coloured bands near their tops.
