While, it’s already closed to general traffic and buses and has been for a while, it will now be closed to people walking and cycling.
Engineers are on site assessing the damage, which may have been caused by the recent extreme weather, and we continue to work with Hammersmith & Fulham and Richmond upon Thames councils on this project. Please plan ahead and check before you travel. For the latest information please visit status updates.
