Therapia Lane depot is a tram depot, situated in the London Borough of Sutton, just south of Tramlink's Wimbledon branch, between Therapia Lane and Beddington Lane. Built on the site of former railway sidings, all tram maintenance, repairs and control functions are based in a purpose built building, erected in 1998.

The depot has sufficient stabling for up to 24 tram sets, and a double track workshop with all required facilities to perform almost all maintenance. Additionally, system control room is located within the building, as well as a base for the British Transport Police to monitor the network.[1]
