One comment on our Facebook page said it was open before 7.45 this morning.

Southampton City Council said that work to repair the building by the bridge has been completed and the river crossing will reopen to traffic.

Although reopened temporarily, it's been closed again to motorised vehicles over half-term week for further repairs after a car was driven into the heritage building on May 11.
