Beckenham Road tram stop is a light rail stop in the London Borough of Bromley in the southern suburbs of London. The stop is located on an embankment above Beckenham Road (A234) which connects Beckenham with Crystal Palace and Penge.

The tram stop is served by Tramlink route 2, which connects central Croydon with Beckenham.cite web | title = Buses and trams from Beckenham Road | publisher = Transport for London | url = http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/gettingaround/maps/buses/pdf/beckenhamroad-11313.pdf | accessdate = 2007-01-30]

The tram stop has a single platform alongside the single track used by Tramlink at this point, which is accessed by steps and a ramp from Beckenham Road. The single track National Rail line between Crystal Palace and Beckenham Junction stations runs alongside the Tramlink line, with the two tracks occupying the site of what was previously a double track railway. However there is no stop on this line. Immediately to the east of the tram stop is a passing loop for Tramlink vehicles, and westbound trams often have to wait for an eastbound tram to clear the stop.
