Elgin Bridge which spans the Singapore River, linking South Bridge Road and North Bridge Road, is the first bridge of Singapore. First completed in 1820 as a timber foot bridge, Elgin Bridge was rebuilt five times before its present concrete form reinforced with embedded steel in 1929. It was gazetted as a National Monument in 2019, along with Anderson Bridge and Cavenagh Bridge collectively known as the Singapore River Bridges.
