Dundonald Road tram stop is a halt on Tramlink (Route 3 – New Addington to Wimbledon) to the south of Wimbledon town centre, in the London Borough of Merton. Access is direct from the pavement on the North side of Dundonald Road at the site of the old level crossing (where the old, now demolished, signal box used to lie on the South side).
At this point, the track follows the route of the old West Croydon to Wimbledon Line between Wimbledon and Croydon, although there was no station on the Dundonald Road site.
The tram stop is in close proximity to Dundonald Park Recreational Grounds and the Dundonald Primary School.
Famous quotes containing the words road and/or stop:
“They keep such a dingdong about “supporting the Constitution.” One might imagine it was some miserable, decrepit old creature that was no longer able to totter on crutches but must be held on every side, and dragged along like a drunken loafer, on his road to the lock-up.”
—Jane Grey Swisshelm (1815–1884)
“Our kids will develop a work ethic only if we require them to pay a portion of the cost of some of the things they want. They’ll learn to defer gratification the moment we stop routinely pulling out our wallets. And they’ll learn self-discipline only if we care enough to enforce reasonable limits.”
—Fred G. Gosman (20th century)
