Cavenagh Bridge

Cross this cast iron footbridge for a close look at an early Singapore River crossing and a short link between Empress Place and the Fullerton Building.

Cavenagh Bridge

Why go

The bridge keeps its original nineteenth-century form amid a much changed waterfront. Walking across lets you inspect the metalwork and see how the old river crossing joins the civic bank to the commercial bank, with Boat Quay visible along the water.

What to look for

  • Cast iron suspension structure above the Singapore River.
  • Cavenagh family coat of arms on the signs at the bridge ends.
  • River view toward Boat Quay and the Fullerton Building.

Useful to know

  • Use the crossing as part of a Singapore River walk between Empress Place and the Fullerton Building.
  • Pause at either end to see the bridge structure before crossing.
