RE: Outdoor counts cost of Hammersmith Flyover closure

The Hammersmith Flyover in west London has reopened after a three-week closure. One lane opened in each direction from 04:30 GMT - but the road remains closed to HGVs and coaches.

RE: Agencies mull £35m ad surplus following News of the World closure
