Hammersmith Bridge has reopened to cyclists after a £2.9 million refurbishment, while it remains closed to cars since April 2019 due to structural issues. The London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham has improved access with separate lanes for cyclists and pedestrians, enhancing safety. The cost of repairs has escalated significantly, now estimated at £250 million, which will be divided amongst the council, the Department for Transport, and Transport for London. As options for car access are still under discussion, alternative measures such as a toll or total car ban are being considered.
