Westminster Bridge was first opened in 1750 and it was widely praised at that time. It stood for over 70 years before structural checks revealed problems with the bridge’s foundations. Westminster Bridge established one of the most important links across the Thames, joining the ever expanding and important area around Westminster to what is now Waterloo. Parliament decided to construct a new bridge although remedial works were carried out. In 1862 the new bridge designed by Thomas Page and Charles Barry was inaugurated with much fanfare. It serves as a convenient link between the London Eye and Houses of Parliament and remains one of London’s busiest foot and road bridges.
