Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what the status is of the memorandum of understanding between his Department and the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham in respect of Hammersmith Bridge.

The Government has set out a clear commitment to support the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham (LBHF) in finding a long-term solution for Hammersmith Bridge, as agreed in the Transport for London (TfL) Extraordinary Funding and Financing Agreement of 1 June 2021. As a condition of this Agreement, the Department for Transport, TfL and LBHF are finalising a memorandum of understanding (MoU). This will set out the agreed next steps and the clear roles and responsibilities for each party.
