Broadmead Road bridge has reopened to motorbikes and bicycles, but remains closed to cars and heavy vehicles.

“Engineers are currently analysing in detail the results of the concrete testing to assess the weight that can be taken across different parts of the bridge… We will publish a simplified version of the Principal Inspection report by mid-November, along with the full inspection report,” said a Redbridge Council spokesperson.

The 87-year-old bridge has been closed to traffic since July 2023 due to significant structural defects.
