London’s Hammersmith Bridge is unlikely to reopen to car traffic after the council spends money converting the structure into a cycle path, according to reports. The Daily Mail says the council has spent about £3 million on the works and indicates that the bridge will not be returned to its previous role for vehicles. The reporting frames the bridge as “ailing” and highlights the shift toward a more eco-friendly transport option, with the cycle path presented as the primary outcome of the renovation. While the coverage emphasizes the permanence of the decision, the available information focuses mainly on the council’s position about car access and the cost of the conversion. Details on the bridge’s underlying condition, timelines for the cycle path, or whether any partial reopening for cars is under consideration are not provided in the supplied text. Overall, the sources converge on the same core point: car traffic is not expected to resume, and the bridge is being repurposed as a cycling route following the council’s investment.
