Why is Albert Bridge closed next week?

Available for over a year

Drivers have been told to avoid the bridge when it closes for essential maintenance work. Kensington and Chelsea Council said Albert Bridge will close in both directions from 07:00 BST on 28 May until 07:00 on 1 June. Some of the individual timber panels along the Grade II listed structure will be replaced during the closure. Work is also expected to be carried out to the bridge’s lighting and ornamental features known as festoons. A diversion will be in place for drivers via Chelsea Bridge or Battersea Bridge.
