answer text <p>The Mayor of London is responsible for this matter. I understand from Transport for London that the reduction in the speed limit to 30 mph was a permanent measure, and that there are no plans to revert back to the 40 mph speed limit on the Hammersmith Flyover. This is because during the strengthening work prior to the Olympic Games in 2012, the speed limit on the carriageway was permanently reduced from 40 mph to 30 mph to maintain road safety. This was due to the reduction in road width required to enable the installation of the post-tensioning system in the central reserve. There are still some strengthening and bridge bearing replacement works to be carried out and these are currently being delivered.</p> more like this
