Surprised they can’t reopen Hammersmith bridge for buses only or something
The issue is the structural integrity of the bridge. As much as I'm in favour of bus-only lanes / roads, I don't think it's the type of vehicle that should get exclusive access to that bridge in particular.
Praise the lord for cycle paths and shared use pavements.
Not through Putney High Street unfortunately, at least after the hill... do you veer off to the right towards Wandsworth at some point then? I've been thinking about doing that as an alternative to going over Putney Bridge and going through Fulham, but the roads to Wandsworth have never struck me as insanely cycle-friendly either. :(

Problem is that the bus you would get on is probably stuck in the same traffic jam. Surprised they can’t reopen Hammersmith bridge for buses only or something, would be an interesting mode-switcher.
