Hungerford Bridge and Golden Jubilee Bridges, Dual footbridge system at South Bank, England

Two modern cable-stayed footbridges flank a central railway bridge across the River Thames between Waterloo Bridge and Westminster Bridge.

Engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel constructed the first suspension footbridge in 1845 to connect South Bank with Hungerford Market.

The current bridges received their name in 2002 to mark Queen Elizabeth II's fifty years as monarch of the United Kingdom.

The footbridges remain accessible every hour of the day and provide direct walking routes between South Bank and Embankment areas.

The bridge system incorporates 180 deck stays on each side, using over 4 kilometers of steel cables to maintain structural integrity.
