Alkaff Bridge, Footbridge at Robertson Quay, Singapore.
The steel truss bridge extends 55 meters across the Singapore River, featuring a design that resembles a traditional tongkang river boat structure.
The bridge bears the name of the Alkaff family, prominent Arabian merchants who ranked among Singapore's most successful business people in the early 1900s.
In 2004, artist Pacita Abad transformed the bridge into a public art installation using 55 different colors and 900 liters of paint.
The bridge connects both banks of Robertson Quay, providing access to numerous restaurants, entertainment venues, and residential developments in the area.
The bridge structure incorporates LED lighting systems that create different color patterns against the Singapore River during evening hours.
