Elgin Bridge is a vehicular box girder bridge across the Singapore River, linking the Downtown Core to the Singapore River Planning Area located within Singapore’s Central Area. It was built between 1925 and 1929.
Cavenagh, Anderson and Elgin Bridge are the latest additions to Singapore’s list of national monuments. Together, they count as a single national monument. These bridges are celebrated for their role in Singapore’s growth as a trading port, and of course, for their stunning architecture. Connecting the north and south banks of the Singapore River, these bridges alleviated passenger traffic on the river and brought Singapore’s commercial and government centres on both sides of the river closer to each other.
