H&F Council is committed to keeping the bridge open to all users including people in wheelchairs, cargo bikes, non-standard cycles & buggies. Pedestrians are being reminded to follow the existing one-way system to reduce conflict on the footways. 2/2 HammersmithBridgeSOS Barnes Community Association


Raphael ZY🇪🇺@raphaelzy.bsky.social H&F Council HammersmithBridgeSOS Barnes Community Association Possible Twickenham & Richmond Liberal Democrats BARNES BUGLE Sarah Olney The issue is some cyclists and e‑scooter users refusing to dismount, and has been ongoing for quite some time. Those employed to ensure the one-way system works efficiently, say they're ignored. Also, doesn’t help that they're not very assertive. #HammersmithBridge

While it’s great TfL will take steps to reduce traffic speeds & improve pedestrian crossings, what Lonsdale Road really needs is a complete redesign to enable pupils of 4 schools in the area to travel actively & connect many Richmond Council commuters to the cycling network at Hammersmith

@OliverWaugh1 adrian pearce TfL Olympic Studios BarnElmsSportsTrust WWT London Wetland Centre Aphra Brandreth Emma Robinson Richmond Council Barnes Community Association The Red Lion, Barnes HammersmithBridgeSOS TfL are cutting services across London. Their decisions are based on passenger numbers which went down once the bridge reopened to pedestrians and cyclists. The new 378 route will bring up the numbers which will make easy for us to then argue for higher frequency. Sarah Olney

Enjoyable evening’s discussion with members of the HammersmithBridgeSOS group & local cllrs. Many important views shared. Richmond Council will request a new meeting of the Taskforce, where we will echo what was said tonight & press for improved resident engagement/consultation over next steps

Thanks for taking the time to listen & engage. Our community needs public transport provision across the bridge as soon as stabilisation work is completed. The Barnes Community Association rickshaw will be ready but with a new 3T weight limit we should aim for light minibuses. Stephen Cowan 🇬🇧🇺🇦

Hammersmith Bridge was closed in 2019 indefinitely. Five years on the campaign to reopen the bridge goes on ... and now we've published The Bridge, a children's picture book in rhyme, told through the eyes of the school children HammersmithBridgeSOS in aid of Chiswick Lifeboat


It’s the Barnes Food Fair on Saturday and we’ll be selling some BCA merchandise as well as a new children’s book about the closure of #HammersmithBridge. The Bridge written by former trustee Helen Edward & illustrated by local artist & sailor Liz St Clair Legge. #barnesfair
