Jiak Kim Bridge, Footbridge in River Valley, Singapore

Jiak Kim Bridge connects both sides of the Singapore River near Robertson Quay with a modern cable arch construction spanning the waterway.

The pedestrian bridge opened in 1999 and received its name from Tan Jiak Kim, a merchant and political figure from early nineteenth century Singapore.

The bridge carries a Chinese name 若锦桥 (Ruò jǐn qiáo) and continues the local tradition of naming bridges after important figures in Singapore's history.

Located at coordinates 1°17′32″N 103°50′09″E, the bridge provides a direct path for pedestrians to cross between residential areas and entertainment districts.

CPG Corporation designed this bridge as part of Singapore's network of pedestrian pathways, connecting it with the broader Robertson Quay development.
