On 10 April 2019,
Hammersmith Bridge was suddenly closed to traffic.
Nearly SIX years later and the funding for its full repair has
still NOT been agreed
or repair plans put in place.
Richmond Park MP Sarah Olney
created a petition “calling on
the Department for Transport
to release the funds for the full repairs as soon as possible" Please sign it here
Campaigning For The Repair Of Hammersmith Bridge
What We Want
Following the re-opening of the bridge to pedestrians & cyclists on 17th July 2021, our campaign has reconsidered its objectives:
1) Our immediate priority is to lobby for some form of public transport, and also emergency vehicles, to be able to cross the bridge at the earliest opportunity.
2) Whilst the stabilisation and repair works are undertaken we will seek assurances from the London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham that the bridge will be kept open for pedestrians and cyclists as much as possible, and that they will ensure conditions are safe and harmonious for all users.
3) In the longer term, we will continue to pressure the authorities concerned to honour their joint commitments to repair this vital London transport link and heritage structure to its full functionality as soon as possible
