Ord Bridge, Steel footbridge at Clarke Quay, Singapore
Ord Bridge spans the Singapore River with rectangular steel trusses on both sides, connecting the northern and southern parts of Clarke Quay district.
The construction of Ord Bridge in 1886 replaced the earlier ABC Bridge, marking a period of infrastructure development during British colonial rule.
The bridge received its name from Colonel Sir Harry St. George Ord, who served as the first British Governor of the Straits Settlements.
The bridge functions as a primary pedestrian crossing point at Clarke Quay, linking the dining establishments and entertainment venues on both sides.
National service members traditionally visit this bridge upon completing their service, as its name coincides with the military term Operationally Ready Date.
