Hammersmith Bridge
Hammersmith Bridge is a suspension bridge that crosses the River Thames in west London. It links the southern part of Hammersmith in the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, on the north side of the river, and Barnes in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, on the south side of the river.
Hammersmith Bridge, designed by Sir Joseph Bazalgette, is a key point on the Boat Race route: 80% of crews who lead here go on to win. The bridge has been dogged by concerns about its strength since it opened in 1887 and is currently closed to motor vehicles, though cyclists and pedestrians can still cross between Hammersmith and Barnes.
