Is MikeBrown in hot water again?
Hammersmith Bridge is part of TfL’s strategic road network. An investigation has found that TfL were sending 100 buses an hour over the bridge.
An agreement with the local council, that there would never be more than one bus going either way at any one time, was never adhered to.
The bus companies consistently breached that agreement, allegedly instructing their drivers to ignore the engineers’ warnings.
The BBC News team caught drivers moving the barrier and actually filmed three buses on the bridge at one time. The news team complained to TfL who immediately sent a square of inspectors to the bridge to monitor what was happening (as if they didn’t already know.
Bus drivers had been repeatedly observed, pulling down the safety barrier on the bridge approach, but until the BBC News team filmed what was going on, complaints were never dealt with and the practise was allowed to continue.
