Hammersmith Bridge, a 138-year-old Victorian structure in west London, has remained closed to vehicles since 2019 due to safety concerns. While the vehicle crossing's fate is still undecided, recent updates have allowed pedestrians and cyclists to access the bridge once again, following £2.9 million in repair works. This included adding lanes and improving accessibility. The local council and transport authorities continue to explore various options for the bridge's future, including a potential vehicle toll and other infrastructure proposals.
The long-term future of Hammersmith Bridge remains uncertain, though recent works have reopened the main carriageway for pedestrians and cyclists after years of closure.
The bridge, a historical structure, faced prolonged debates over its fate, with various proposals under consideration by local authorities.
