Tips

Road cycling

Tower Bridge is a combined bascule and suspension bridge in London, built between 1886 and 1894. The bridge consists of two towers, tied together at the upper level by two horizontal walkways, designed to withstand the horizontal tension forces imposed by the suspended sections of the bridge on the landward sides of the towers. The bridge deck is freely accessible to both vehicles and pedestrians, whereas the bridge's twin towers, high-level walkways and Victorian engine rooms form part of the Tower Bridge Exhibition, for which there's a small admission charge.

Road cycling

Traffic on the bridge is restricted to 20mph but normally at a stand still. Don't ride on the pavement there's always hundreds of people...
