Vauxhall Bridge is a significant architectural and transport landmark in central London. Opened in 1906, it replaced an earlier iron bridge and is now a Grade II* listed structure. The bridge spans the River Thames, linking Vauxhall on the south bank with Pimlico on the north. It was the first bridge in London to carry trams and later became one of the first roads to have a bus lane. Despite proposals for modern redevelopment in the 1960s, the bridge's design has remained largely unchanged, maintaining its historic charm while serving as a vital part of the city's road network.
