Jubilee Bridge, Singapore

Jubilee Bridge, Singapore (28 July 2017)


Jubilee Bridge (GPS: 1.28773, 103.85434) is a pedestrian bridge in the Singapore Esplanade. It links the promenade in front of Esplanade - Theatres on the Bay to Merlion Park. The 220-meter bridge was named after the Jubilee Anniversary of the founding of Singapore in 1965.

The idea to construct the Jubilee Bridge was proposed by the late Mr Lee Kuan Yew, who observed that the existing walkway along the Esplanade Bridge was too narrow for pedestrians, and suggested that another bridge be built for pedestrians across the Singapore River. Unfortunately Mr Lee passed away before the bridge could be opened to the public. Nevertheless its opening was moved forward by a month, to 31 March, 2015, in order to allow Singaporeans to bid farewell to Mr Lee.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
