Wandsworth Council is addressing the complex and interconnected nature of ongoing and planned transport works across the borough, aiming to mitigate a potential "domino impact" on residents and businesses. Councillor Zara Wiles raised concerns in September 2026 about the cumulative effect of various transport schemes and major works, highlighting traffic displacement caused by bridge closures.

The "domino impact" of works is being considered in hotspot areas such as Lower Richmond Road, Putney High Street, Battersea Bridge Road, and Tooting Broadway, according to a September 2026 report. The council is also considering the impact of bridge closures, including Hammersmith Bridge and Albert Bridge, on traffic displacement.
