This bridge is Sadiq Kahns and Hammersmith councils responsibility. Both

As I understand it knowing a quick resolution was beyond the resources of
TFL and Hammersmith
approached the Government for financial assistance and was turned down.


Quite possibly. Perhaps Rishi can visit his magic money tree again.

Given they've now banned pedestrians and cyclists from the bridge one can
only assume its gone beyond needing repair and has moved into dangerous
structure territory. I wonder what effect that'll have on river traffic
beneath if they're worry bits are going to fall off.


All River traffic has been prohibited.

Ouch, its obviously in a very dangerous condition. I wonder if they're
concerned about the entire structure failing.
