HAMMERSMITH BRIDGE IS OPEN And a bit of creative innovation from @LBHF and @LBRUT could see public transport return via small electric vehicles to link the buses. @wandbc is claiming that traffic has increased over Putney Bridge, but this is untrue.

Windmill Road resurfaced at last. It was one of the most potholed roads in Chiswick. Thank you @HounslowHways. Now for Fauconberg/Elmwood Roads, another shocker.
