A TREE has collapsed on to a section of tram track - forcing Transport for London to suspend services between East Croydon and Lloyd Park.
The collapse comes after the Met Office warned of heavy rain and strong winds across the south-east.
The tree has fallen between the Sandilands tunnel and Larcombe Close.
The Met Office has issued an amber warning for rain and have advised people not to travel unless it is "absolutely essential".
TFL currently has no estimate for when the problems with the trams will be resolved by.
Croydon Council has issued some advice for people to deal with the adverse conditions.
A council spokesman said: "As with the last storm the council has teams on standby to deal with issues such as localised flooding or fallen trees blocking roads. Both of these can be reported quickly and easily using the new 'My Croydon' smartphone app which is available free for both iPhones and Android devices. Our priority is to keep traffic moving as smoothly as possible, particularly at a time of year when many people may have long journeys ahead of them."
