This site chronicles the trials and tribulations of the bridge since 1999. It's main purpose was to keep everyone involved informed whilst the 2 year closure was in place. It is now an historical record of those times. The last years have been a chequered time in the history of Hammersmith Bridge. It's been closed, repaired, opened, bombed, closed, re-repaired and re-opened. Hopefully it will now be open for good. The traffic is flowing over the bridge (the A4 permitting). Those of you who have driven over the bridge at night will have noticed that the bridge is lit up and looks stunning. If you haven't seen the bridge at night have a look at the pictures for a taster. A drink in one of the pubs along the newly repaved River Walk on a fine summer evening is now enhanced with the magnificent night time views of the bridge. |
